Indeed it does. The top of NJ, River to River.
many of the best and brightest flee.
I've already purchased a home in The Villages, Florida. Got my golf cart too! I'm a part timer for the now, but I can't wait to leave. I'm still trying to figure out what I get for the $20/day I pay the state in property tax. I don't have kids, my HOA dues pave the roads, do the snow plowing, I pay for my own garbage and I'm on a well and septic. Fire is volunteer. Far as I can tell, I'm just being looted.
Thanks; I didn’t know one district toughed both rivers like that.
“Looted” is the word for it, and the clock is ticking on our government worker caste because many people who endured it for years are packing up and leaving. When I was younger, people moved when they retired (or could afford to remain in their single-family homes as retirees); more and more now simply leave when the last child finishes high school (NOT college), or when the last parent dies. As they leave, they are being replaced by some middle-class Asians and far more Hispanics in the permanent underclass; real opportunity vanishes as COMPANIES tire of the same tax burden (and see little return). The unspoken scandal is how much current revenue is used not just for huge salaries for today’s government workers, but to pay for the incredible benefits with which former workers have retired. Simply unsustainable...
