Yes, there are probably a lot of people who have left NJ because they can't stand the corruption and ever-increasing tax burden, and want to go somewhere that they can start over in less oppressive surroundings.

But there are others who have left for the same reasons not realizing that the demands THEY'VE made - and will continue to make - on the system are largely responsible for the mess. A friend of mine is fond of using the phrase "seagull manager" - someone who flies in, makes a lot of noise, sh*ts all over everything, and then leaves. These are the "seagull residents", and they're going to end up sh*tting all over places like PA, NC and FL, or wherever they happen to swoop in.

That’s a rather offensive comparison. Have you ever been to New Jersey?
