It's no wonder Corps want to relocate out of the state. i would NEVER live there.
Much of what you say about NJ is true - in particular the school situation is totally f_ed. However, we did boot John Corzine out of office - and he wasn't from Jersey anyway. Pretty sure he closed up shop in Hoboken and moved back to NYC once his term of "service" ended.

I notice you live in California, which is in my opinion one of the few places that can give Jersey a run for its money in terms of bureaucracy per capita. NJ, for instance, does NOT have a bureau of home furnishings like California has. Thus, I find your comments re: NEVER living in NJ just a tad ironic...
