Of course he did, Murphy is a clown, Ciattarelli trounced him. All Murphy did was criticize Trump who's no longer here and drone on about 'black and brown people' as if they are pets under Democrat care and not working citizens. The question is did enough people watch the debate or care.
Inthemountains93:
I'm 36, born here in 1985. This is the basic story of NJ: A melting pot of immigrants built a thriving and diverse economy that was stronger than just about any state in the US. Government had a little to do with that success, but not very much. Government got way too big and bloated off the cream they skimmed from that thriving economy and is now slowly killing their milking cow (if it's not already dead, depending how you look at it). When I was little and even as a teenager, taxes were way more reasonable. They just grow and grow, well beyond the pace of inflation, mainly to support the pension system. What was average 6-7-8 years ago ($5.5-6.5k in South Jersey) is now rock bottom. What was high then ($8-9k) is now below average. Politics were less liberal when I was young and less of a presence in general, and the liberal policies hadn't yet become parasitic. The alarmist maskholes have brought NJ down to a new low.
The suck factor is high and higher than ever, but I think some of your bashes are a little exaggerated. The weather's not perfect but it's scorching down south much worse than here, and longer winters in New England and Midwest. Yes it's bad compared to CA or Hawaii, but I think the weather's pretty decent overall; personally I'd take the Southern weather but a lot of people like the full season change. Traffic isn't that bad depending where you live.
I am so dissappointed in both. I don't want a Governor who doesn't care about Seniors and I don't want a Governor who sets the bar so low with taking away pensions employees contributed. Put employees working less than 10 in a 401K with new employees. All others break down but why go after those already retired and set the bar so low that just isn't right. It's attacking people who already paid into their pensions who didn't get paid much. Why not move the bar up higher to the overpaid? why make it combined with Social Security when that has nothing to do with pension? Take from them then take from all other forms of income from everyone that is what will come once they chip away from the lower salaried up to the highest.
You really think big businesses aren’t being told what to do? You really think big media isn’t all on the same team……. They all work together for what I’ve seen…. In and Out burger was the exception.
Agreed. Think about who benefited from this idiots lockdown. Hmm Walmart, Target, McDonalds. The same ones who make political donations. Follow the money. The lockdown was just another way to demolish any competition to big business. Now that's all that's left.
Then don't go to McDonald's, and I say that even though I am a long-term holder of a few hundred shares of their stock.
How does an private business's decision on this issue--or on any issue, for that matter--have anything to do with government policies?
I don't. Haven't in many years. Going to be pretty hard when that's all that's left.
As a 28 year old who’s been in NJ for most of my life, that state offers nothing but good food pretty much. I don’t get the appeal with how crowded it is and how expensive and taxed we are, I consider NJ to be one of the worser states, being near NY who cares…. Winters are very random and can suck, summers to humid and hot, Jersey shore gets way to crowded and beaches aren’t even good here go to mass or Maine or anywhere on west coast or Florida we suck. Always traffic, very liberal now, highest taxes anywhere, I don’t even see money I make, idk I just don’t get it. I used to do online sites and make friends from all over and every single person has made fun of NJ or said “I’ve never heard someone wants to move to or was excited to move to NJ”
Just my opinion maybe state was great at one point, I guess those who grew up in 80s or earlier can vouch for NJ
Your opinions are valid. The company I work for had alot of challenges recruiting millenial talent into NJ and had to move Charlotte. NJ is atrocious to bring in any new companies or talent or startups.
Theres a Tiktok video by Gen Z rating all the states to live in and NJ was ranked bottom basically saying that we have the taxes of California without any of the beauty or weather.
I guess its true what Phil Murphy said, "if you dont like the high taxes, leave NJ". Its proven.under Murphy we are the state with most people leaving.

Good. There’s too many people here anyway. When are you packing your bags and heading to Charlotte?
Their just-released poll shows that the race has indeed tightened, but Murphy holds an 11 point lead over his opponent, with less than 1 week remaining until election day:

BS liberal based poll. Monmouth Polls have always been inacurrate. Thanks for the laugh.
Well, to quote an old saying, He who laughs last, laughs best, so I propose that we return to this thread next Wednesday, to see who is laughing at that point. Are you game?

If Murphy wins, there won't be any reason for anyone to laugh. NJ will be screwed. NJ cannot afford 4 more years of this Dictator. This is a fact!
