Nothing will change as far as taxes are concerned. NOTHING!
However, the slow & steady progress of Newark will come to a halt. Mayor Booker's valiant efforts will be for naught. Jersey City's meteoric rise will end. Environmental clean up will get less money.
Suburbanites want their quality education, but don't want to pay for it.
Christie will cut social programs to placate his suburban base but ignore the real money draining issue in NJ.
After all, people love to blame others (those dirty, poor black people in Newark) for the state of things & not have to actually sacrifice anything of their own.
Good job white people with misplaced anger, you have just elected someone who will make you feel better about yourselves.
Jersey City's rise was due to a Republican Brett Schundler and business working together. The state contributed nothing.

I can only imagine your outrage if someone were to dare say "well done black people" about anything......

You must be kidding. Besides Newark, Jersey City, Trenton, Camden, Elizabeth, Paterson, Hackensack, Irvington, Atlantic City and East Orange the rest of the state is all suburbs with the exception of Cape May county. Out of 8.8 million people; about 7 million are suburbanites. Separating the two is pointless. Gentrification in Jersey City will continue btw...
I voted for Corslime, even though I am not a big fan of his. I am moving in six months, so I really don't care either way, and I doubt Christi can do much better.
Want real change? Wait until Jersey resident Lou Dobbs finally comes around and runs for governor as an independent. He is the only independent who could win, and an independent governor is exactly what Jersey needs.
In hindsight, should I be happy about this? my bro tells me Christie plans on cutting 10,000 state jobs. Whats up with that?
