A Change in Tone for the Village

Ridgewood NJ, three recent letters to the editor posted in the Ridgewood News may be signaling a change of tone for the Village .
All three were noticeable in the absence of heaping praise for the irresponsible spending and outlandish promises that usually make headlines in this town .
So what gives ,Ridgewood is no longer a safe heaven for left wing loons , like the mad bomber or supporters of New Jersey’s Democratic machine politics . Maybe the grip of Hudson County is soiling the upscale nature of the Village and degrading residents self image ?
No , its seems more like the reality of the continued negative impacts of Big Government or Government knows best policies are hurting more and more people . It is one thing to read about it in the paper its anther to see your neighbors go down the tubes .
It seems the tax payer is feeling far less generous and growing weary of the we know best shut up and pay attitude .

If you have been around here long enough, and I certainly have, one can certainly see the direction this “village” is, and has been going. The wrong way.
What is really sad is hearing what people say who don’t even live here.
