'Leading' The Nation

In January New Jersey was responsible for a whopping 56% of the nation's job loss.
Under wacky Jon Corzine and the all-Democrat state legislature New Jersey continues to drift deeper into debt, borrowing more and attempting to push forward with relentless rounds of toll and tax hikes. At the same time the state is bleeding jobs, businesses and residents. To say that New Jersey is not a business friendly state would be an understatement.
State spending must be drastically reduced now if there is to be any chance to prevent total economic collapse. Call your state legislator now and demand spending cuts and no increases in tolls or taxes.

And He's Off . . .

Shortly after he gave his dismal budget address wacky Jon Corzine left Joisey and flew off to Ohio to campaign for Hillary Clinton.
Corzine is still insisting that Clinton will be his party's nominee. And he still believes that his heavily-lambasted NJ toll increase plan may survive in some form.
We do hope that Corzine had a great time in Ohio. Since he was closer to his home state of Illinois he must have felt a lot better than he did here in Joisey where his budget address to the state legislature did not garner any interruption for applause.

A Mighty Roar, Part 2

In town meetings, rallies, phone calls and letters-to-the-editor New Jersey taxpayers are speaking with a mighty roar - a roar that says "Cut state spending! No tax increases! No toll hikes! No new taxes!'
In front of the Statehouse they gathered and shouted "We're not gonna take it anymore!"
And now it appears they've already won their first big victory. Corzine's toll scheme is all but dead.
Hey, it's another day in my adult life when I'm proud of my country.

Frankenstein

Wacky Jon Corzine's toll and tax plan is dead. Even Corzine himself has admitted it's not going anywhere in its current form.
But watch out. Because the Governor is apparently ready to wheel and deal with Assembly and Senate Democrats - the same Democrats who are reluctant to give up the iron-fisted grip they feel they hold on our state.
So, like Frankenstein, some version of a tax/spend/tax/spend plan can keep coming back. Dems are eyeing hikes in the gas tax. Yes, they want to take away the one break (the last break) we've got in Joisey - the relatively low price of gas at the pump. And there are other tax schemes on the table inclding "smaller" rises in tolls and another round of hikes in state-imposed fees for all sorts of things. Plus, they want to take away our real estate tax rebates.
The answer for all of these must be clear: "No, no, no and no!"
No further increases in taxes, tolls, or fees. No new taxes. No reductions in rebates. No more games. Cut state spending now.
