Wyckoff NJ, Assemblyman Kevin J. Rooney R- 40  comments on the latest tax increase from Trenton .
Rooney said last Thursday during the state budget battle ,”People moving out of New Jersey are having a significant economic impact, according to a report released by NJBIA. Outmigration by the Numbers: How Do We Stop the Exodus? Concludes that New Jersey lost $18 billion in net income over nine years thanks to a net outmigration of 2 million residents.
The exodus leads to $8.4 billion in lost household spending; $11.4 billion in lost economic output; 75,000 lost jobs and $4 billion in total lost labor income.
This year Democrats are fighting with Democrat Governor Phil Murphy over two spending plans: their plan to spend $36.5 billion and Murphy’s plan of $37.4 billion. Except this time it is over which taxes to hike to fund their irresponsible spending increase. When will New Jersey Democrats stop the insanity?”

    3) Enact Laws Regulations and Taxes which are anti-business
    .
    4) Keep voting in Socilasts running under the Democrat party banner.

    All the new arrivals are on the receiving end of welfare etc.
    No company in their right mind would ever expand and hire in NJ
    Fortunately we are still a bedroom community for NYC finance jobs or the property’s value would slide.
    My friends in south nj near philly cannot get a buyer for their home.
