Wouldn’t it be an amazing experiment if one governor could create a tax-free or minimal tax zone for “rich” people- and see what happened?
Wouldnt it be cool if NJ became the most “millionaire tax friendly” state in the USA, and see what happens? Hong Kong on the east coast.
Obama will send in Federal troops to crush such a counter revolutionary development/sarcasm.

And to think it is all the school teachers fault. Who woulda thunk it?
Christie is the man! Need more like him.
he would not have to lay off any public school employee this year. Including the bus drivers and “lunch ladies” cited as victims in that pathetic teacher union “tax the rich” ad.
So yeah, for that one piece of this year's budget madness, maybe the ball IS in the teachers’ court.
If they paid attention to Maryland, they'd see that “tax the rich” COST the state money!
Years ago, the population density of New Jersey exceeded that of Japan and India.
The more people you pack into a place, the more freedoms you loose and the more government and taxes you get.
When I moved here in 1972, New Jersey had no income tax at all. I can honestly say that the government of 2010 here does nothing for me that the government of 1972 didn't do, nor was there anything in 1972 that I was looking to the government for beyond the roads and police and so on, that was already in place.

New Jersey has been owned and operated by the pinky-ring teachers union thugs for decades. I used to marvel at the government school buildings whenever I took the little league baseball team I coached over to Jersey for a game. They're Taj Mahals.
Nearly all of the billions of dollars in cuts the administration has proposed would affect programs for poor Californians...
Government doesnt provide services to rich people, Mike Genest, the states finance director, said on a conference call with reporters on Friday. It doesnt even really provide services to the middle class. He added: You have to cut where the money is.
He’s a RINO. He was supported by Giuliani. He needs a real conservative challenger in the next election.
One man’s failed state is a another Leftist’s wet dream.
Here’s NJ’s “Teacher of the Year” in her union’s “Tax the Rich” ads

As a rule, almost all our IL Democrats retire to Florida with their IL pensions. Go figure?
Isn’t Florida having major financial difficulties, too?
I grew up in New Jersey, and the state's politics have a combativeness that is a lot like New York. He's taking the Rudy Giuliani and Fiorello LaGuardia approach to governing, which is "Confront and attack."
Reaganesk INDEED!
“Through the darkest nights, comes the brightest lights!”
May God protect and keep him safe, for he has dared too much in the Unionistan state and I fear for his safety.
