Looks like our governor is a McGreev-ous liar. Not surprising that a DemocRat would act this way, really. Remember those short-lived "McGreevey = Higher taxes" signs during the campaign? How right they were! No wonder the Dems pulled up every one they could find.

Spread the word. McGreevey = Florio II.

Not only that, but our NJ State Police super is now just a poc (plain-old-civilian); can't wear a badge; can't wear a uniform. Why, you ask? Because somebody lied (opps... make that 'made a typo') stating that he graduated from the police acadmey in a class that... well... just did not exists.

I can dig up a source if someone needs it, but I heard this on the radio yesterday. Apparently, he’s trying to end the income tax reciprocation agreement with Philadelphia (at least, possibly all PA and PA localities).

Well, the city of Philadelphia was very happy to hear that. Now Philadelphia can collect the 4.2% wage tax on all the New Jersey residents who come in to Philadelphia to work. Almost no one goes from Phila (or PA, relatively) into New Jersey to work. Apparently, he became so fixated on the taxes he wasn’t collecting from Pennsylvanians, he didn’t realize how much he’d loose from his own residents.

Of course he could always just let Philadelphia hit his people with a wage tax and so could New Jersey. I’m sure a Democrat wouldn’t have any problem with that…

New Jersey voters must be kicking themselves.

Not this one - I escaped to Free America about 15 months ago, and ain't going back except to visit.

This is just the same smoke and mirrors that Reagan used to pay for his tax cuts, and no one objected then. You don't raise taxes, you simly tax more things. As an example (as many are about to find out), unemployment was not taxable until Reagan, now it must be reported as income, that's one of the ways they made up for the revenue lost to his tax cuts. No government ever shrinks no matter who is in charge.
