"But the northwest corner of the state, where I live, where my wife grew up, where her folks live, is rural. It's red state country, and it's got wildlife. I want it to stay that way. This is our little piece of Montana. I want it to keep that character. If we follow your thinking, we'll just say the hell with it, it's new jersey, and pave over the rest of the state."

I agree with you there.

Overdevelopment is a blight on the nation and New Jersey certainly has had more than its share. But when the Construction lobby is so powerful back there and spends so much money, its to be expected.

Well thanks for finding an area of agreement. I think you're right about the construction lobby. Heck, they're still putting in more retail stores all over the place. 50 years ago, Little Falls, Garfield, Wallington, was all farm land. Now it's wall the wall concrete, houses crowded in together, not a place I would ever want to live. I hope Wantage Twp never gets like that.
