You've said that a couple of times. So is there a statewide property
tax for highway spending?
No. We just borrow the money until no one will give us any anymore.
This is a big problem. Our infrastructure is falling apart, and the
state transportation trust fund seems to need a bail out every couple of
years.
Besides, we already pay the highest property taxes in the country. I'd
hate to see the state put another levy on top of that. When people in
NJ get upset about taxes, it tends to be about the property taxes.
