NJ Supreme Court considering wants higher taxes!

Once again the NJ Supreme Court, an entity that reports to no one and is filled with partisan political appointee (by definition) has decided to review whether or not recent developments with the budget need tinkering(from Philly.com):

If New Jersey wants the state's highest court to approve its new formula for funding its schools, the state needs to show that it is providing sufficient resources for its poorest districts, according to a ruling released yesterday.

The New Jersey Supreme Court ordered fact-finding hearings on the state's new education-funding formula before the justices will rule on whether it should permanently replace the old system that favored certain largely poor, urban school districts.


What is incredible about this interference on reasonable legislative change, is that NJ spending for poor districts is already in the top 5 of all states. So if the Supreme Court wants to get involved, they clearly want to promote further a concerted attack on the working class family in this state through higher taxes. It gets a little disgusting when "poor districts" in this state continue to plead for more money when every other district than a "poor district" (or Abbott district by definition from the court) have to raise taxes on a yearly basis to just keep up while the state robs money to pay for corruption in the Abbott districts.

At the current rate, we will all represent Abbott districts and the Supreme Court can dictate that we all need more money. No matter what happens, this state will sooner or later realize that this group of political hacks should not continue to undermine our legislature and voters. We have a tricameral government for a reason. And it isn't to enrich corruption.

It is why all wealthy people have left or are leaving the state. Soon there will be no one to pay the taxes. Delaware and Pennsylvania are tax havens compared to NJ.

No kidding. I would be untruthful if I told you I haven't researched the topic in detail. And I if didn't like my house and friends nearby, I would have already left after my 5th property tax reassessment in 6 years.
