    Just learned yeserday that in orxer to move out of New Jersey you have to pay ransome , I mean hostage tax er a exit tax .Fuckers are destroying the State but oh no you can't leave . Not unless you pay up .Funny even the bridge into Jersey on Rt. 1 only charges you to leave .
     
    Then it's not an exit tax, it's a real estate sales tax. How do they know it's the intentions of the seller to leave the state?
    Honestly, unless this is somehow charged like a "Departure Tax" in a third world shithole (the only places that have such totalitarian bull shit taxes), there is no mechanism to collect other than voluntarily. It would have to be charged after the fact to be valid. It would be like a penalty for not filing NJ State Taxes, in which case you're already gone... Again, I don't understand how this could be enforceable without enforceable borders on the state.
     
    I was in East St. Louis about twenty+ years ago. A cop pulled me over for blowing a stop sign. The stop sign in question was on the ground face down. There was zero possibility I could have seen it. I pointed this out respectfully to the officer, and the cop just shrugged. I signed the ticket rather than argue with a cop who could care less.

    I looked up the statute of limitations and decided that the chance of me going over there again in the next seven years was low, and could easily be reduced to zero. I was deployed overseas when I got a letter from my Mom saying she had opened my mail and paid the ticket. I was furious. I'm obviously still mad about it! ;)

    The people of New Jersey must be ok with it, otherwise the electorate would change. Keep re-electing the same lampreys but expecting things to improve..................MERICA!
     
    I am happy with the exit tax for NJ. Maybe it will prevent those yankee bastards from infecting the rest of the country, well, further anyway. Present company excluded.

    Not a chance in hell of the tax keeping them there.
    Just come down to florida from Sarasota south and eastward. It sounds like NY, NJ, MA and NH all rolled into one.

    Basically once the leaches and the moochers start outnumbering and out voting the producers, it never stops and only gets worse. They don't mind how much they vote up taxes as long as they get a promise of a bit extra for them.

    Pretty much legalized theft & you don't even have to do any of the work...., they want to vote the government to send guys with guns to steal money from somebody else and give it to them.

    It's why once you reach a tipping point, pretty much there is no hope till it all crashes and burns and everybody dies.

    Oh I know it is too late to prevent and infestation. I would be happy if the tax just slowed it down a little. We have more than our fair share in North Texas due to the economy. The sad thing is that yankee transplants that move to a better economy vote just like they did in the shithole they just moved from. They are not smart enough to understand they are the reason the economy in their former state tanked. Present company excluded.
