This isn’t leadership

My heart is breaking for the state of New Jersey — and I am furious.
The Democrats push preschool expansion for 3- and 4-year-olds while ignoring the crumbling schools we already have — schools with no busing, failing test scores, stripped extracurriculars, and students forced to pay to participate in basic activities. All while their parents are crushed by obscene taxes.
Meanwhile, irresponsible school districts are using our tax dollars to go on lavish trips to Honolulu, hold open bar events, and spend $225,000 on balloon decorations — while holding their hands out claiming there’s no money for teachers, programs, or transportation.
They’re seizing a multi-generational family farm through eminent domain to force mandated “affordable” housing that our communities can’t afford and our infrastructure can’t support.
They’ve turned their backs on clean, affordable natural gas and shut down reliable power sources — chasing green energy fantasies that don’t exist — while we import energy from fossil fuels and coal-burning states and pretend it’s progress.

The Pepuls Republik of Nu Jerzee has been “fiscally raped” by the Democrat party, the “Teachers’ Union”, and all sorts of leftist liberal midwest with dreams of an “ideal world”.
Unfortunately, the New Jersey taxpayers have to live in the real world.
All the economics are headed in the wrong direction.
Dismal results, escalating costs, and a complete utter failure of any type of political supervision or will to address the problem.
When faced with an utter collapse, I suggest we “declare victory” and let the parent do what they want.
In the HANDS ACROSS NEW JERSEY tax revolt, I proposed a 60 year “solution’ to migrate from the current system to a radial solution. It was simple:
- Recognize that for what the Taxpayer spends on “education”, all students could go to the Princeton Hun Academy (obviously absurd)
- All schools would be “gifted” to the schools’ staff to organize (subject to some restictions on selling the real estate)
- All students would be giver “red vouchers” representing the State’s contribution to their education.
- For the next 20 years, each year 5% of the red vouchers would turn “green” meaning the parents and guardians could “spend” them at any accredited school (meaning there would be a few rules around it)
- For the following 20 years, 5% of all “red vouchers” would turn “green”.
- For the final 20 years, the State would reduce the gross voucher amount by 5%
- At the conclusion of 60 years, “public education” would no longer exist
- I had a lot of details that (1) schools would have to post a bond to guarantee that they would stay in business; (2) School share holders would be locked in for some period of time; and (3) anyone moving in state would be “green”,
And, we could finally be free of the Gooferment Skrules, the Teachers’ Union (influence in politics), and the Prussian Model of “School” (making cannon fodder for the Army, willing morons for the factories, and useful idiots to vote for and be led by the elite).
Unfortunately, I wasn’t up to the task of selling the idea. The R’s (republicans as opposed to the Democans) infiltrated the HANJ organization and destroyed any hope.
Sigh!
Imagine the Gooferment took over the shoe industry and only made average one-size-fits-all size 8½ shoes. How would that work out? Yup, just like today’s education “system”.
Argh!
