What is up with New Jersey?

Governor wants to raise taxes, the legislature doesn't agree, so he shuts the state down, including many of the most lucrative places for Tax revenue: Atlantic City casinos.

Tax payers are borderline revolutionary. Like NY they are experiencing a population decline of people who pay big taxes. Corzine wants to raise sales tax another 1% and is holding his ground.

We already have enough refugees here.


Hey Everyone - Texas sucks. You don't want to come here. Let me tell you about the big big bugs we have...

Nothing to see here, move along. Move along.

I can tell you horror stories about New Jersey, company owns a low income housing community. They rape us everytime we turn around.

Yeah..

I agree with Red. NJ is a great place. More people should move there.

Arizona is terrible. Hot, dusty, backwards and full of Latinos!! (last item added for the edification of those concerned about immigration). Nothing here to see.

all the babes go to lake Havasu City, Az. Great party town. A very decent home is $250-300k.

But Lake Havasu can get mighty mean in the summer. There are days it makes Phoenix cool by comparison. Butm October thru May...Beautiful!!
