Just headlines for now. Of course, if your trading record is 63 out of 63 in the past quarter, you are fully exempt from paying any taxes in America in perpetuity. After all you own the country.

New Jersey is simply trying to drive the GS cockroaches back to New York City.

"Don't come back, we're leaving the light on."

Of course, those politicians somehow exempted themselves. Its the hallmark of a true kleptocracy.

Highest property taxes in the US and they want to tax the business owners even more. If you own any property there you better start farming it.

They will institute requirements  (via Cap-N-Trade) that will make it near impossible to sell your house and move.  Then, after you don't pay your property taxes, they will take the property away.  Finally, to add insult to injury, they will move to re-instate pauper laws and force you to work your land to justify your existence.  This is pretty much how feudalism started in the 3rd & 4th centuries ... we are doomed.

I remember in the 1990's being deemed by New York to be "rich" somewhere around $30k ... I guess that a New Jersey millionaire will start somewhere around $50k.

As they use to say in Zimbabwe - "We were all trillionaires.  We were so rich we use to burn our money to stay warm."

These guys have already been burned by the laffer curve. Amazing. Demonstrates just how dire the situation is, no properly functioning brains anymore...panic takes over, rational thought out the window

Coming to a city near you.  Tax 'em 'til they leave, then raise taxes on the ones who stay.  My city had the balls to RAISE the value of my house this year.  I'd be lucky as Hell to sell for 60% of my assessment.

Funny how even though we're shutting off every other street light to save money, cutting school programs, talking of laying off teachers, and not hiring police to fill vacancies, we can still afford to pave bike trails.  My sanity is looking to follow that last bit of rational thought out that window.

Dear Shakedown Victims:

Most of you are probably going to be choosing new places to live.  If you love God, guns and freedom and are willing to fight to defend it, we could use you in Texas.  If, on the other hand, you have been neutered by a government hell bent on making your every wish come true, you probably wouldn't like it here.  We don't do that shit, and we're about to do even less of it.

 

Texas.  John Galt would love it here.  That little pussy James Taggart would be better off somewhere else.   More later....gotta go clean my shotgun.  May need it soon.
