Taxes at state level

New Jersey is the third highest tax burden state. We could move to Hawaii and see overall burden reduced by .25%. In NJ some voted in legalized marijuana. That was to bring us some kind of budgetary relief, and more freedom. We have a general election coming up this November. You will have a chance to vote early for your choices. Your ballot can be very early, but if you discover a non-desirable fact against YOUR CHOICE, you cannot pull back your vote. Tough luck when you look at the referendum for Marijuana, which was passed last year. That was before young people decided to have beach parties in Avalon, as well as other seaside towns. Marijuana and alcohol are the preferred menu for fun. Now Avalon has closed their beaches after dark. Police in New Jersey are not to allowed to create a disturbance by arresting or citing party participants. Thank you, Gurbir S. Grewal, and smiling Phil Murphy, as well as those voting for legalization and restrictive policing. In the political pandemic of sloganeering to defund police how will your municipality, county and state taxes be affected. Auto accidents in Colorado increased by about 4 % with legalized mary-jane. The realistic NJ situation is an individual cannot be criminally charged for possession of small amounts of marijuana or hashish. Is that before or after giggle fests? Will we see an increase in the auto-accident statistics? I am certain taxes will not go down. Gerald Keer
