We pay half of the medical payments for our health insurance and more than 8.5% for our retirement. This is a nice start for N.Jerseyans and if the unions there don’t know what a great deal this is, they should look at others’ plans.
A lot of them move to Florida or other states where their state retirement is not taxed, which I don't have a problem with. What I DO have a problem with are all the Democrat state employees (including most of the teachers) who are hard core (and I mean almost Stalinistic) Democrats.
Taxes, you see, are for "other" people.
Besides, from what I have observed, those who stay in NJ don't fish with the grand kids, as much as do this.
