I am completely perplexed by an Ocean View spouter who claims that New Jersey is a "family state" and should not to be compared to Florida which is a "retirement state," so therefore, all who live in New Jersey should expect to pay and are obligated to pay outlandish school taxes. With a population in the tens of millions, I was completely unaware that there are no families and no schools in Florida! Why are Floridians not up to speed like here and paying through the nose to support their schools? Could it be that their tax system is much different and much fairer?
