Great analysis on how Jim McGreEVIL is ruining my home state...thank God I spend 9 months of the year in Bill Frist country, lest I go insane. I've been trying to convince my parents to get the hell out of this state, and with the gay marriage thing yesterday...

Nonetheless, some creative judicial interpretation may be the only thing standing between big-spending politicians and their ability to foist unlimited debt upon current and future New Jersey taxpayers.

Didn't the NJSC find a "constitutional right" to put a democrat on the ballot *after* the deadline for putting names on the ballot had passed?

McGreevy is the worst. He is the most corrupt governor in my memory (and that is saying something). Like a typical liberal, he is given a near free pass from the press.

His campaign manager was arrested last week. The McGreevey campaign took a $40,000.00 bribe from a landowner so that he could sell his property back to the State for $5,000,000.00. The property would be worth no where near that amount on the open market.

A campaign finance law signed by McGreevy goes into effect AFTER the next election, but a huge tax increase is retroactive.

As a lifelong NJ resident and a manufacturer that operates in NJ, I have decided to move my manufacturing plant to SC next year.

But worst of all from an economic standpoint, McGreevey pushed a tax increase on the earnings of those who make more than $500,000 in a given year.

And in typical liberal double-speak, he labeled it his “Millionaire’s Tax.”

McGreevey sure has a gay old time spending other people’s money.

McGreevey’s plan boosts the state income-tax rate on incomes of $500,000 or more to 8.97 percent — a 41 percent increase — and is projected to raise $800 million from 28,000 upper-income taxpayers.

Anyone want to bet on just how much additional revenue will actually be generated by this tax hike?

The biggest impact of this tax is likely to be felt in the real estate market, as large numbers of high-end earners move out of the state's wealthiest suburbs.
