Friends Don't Let Friends Pay Higher Taxes? | Grassroot Institute ...

Gov. Phil Murphy proposed a $40.9 billion budget that raises taxes on millionaires, cigarettes and guns while setting aside a record amount of money for NJ Transit — but he helps pay for that by diverting money from other accounts, moves he has denounced as budget gimmickry.

And he boasted that "no other administration has done so much in its first two years to control property taxes," a claim his predecessors would likely challenge. The late Brendan Byrne enacted the income tax, which must by law go solely to property tax relief. Jim McGreevey sent taxpayers rebates. Chris Christie signed a 2% cap on annual property tax increases. 

Murphy hailed his overseeing the lowest and fourth-lowest year-over-year increases in property taxes on record, but despite that slow growth New Jersey's average of $8,767 ranks No. 1 nationwide. 

Watch the rest of the Democratic States to follow. Just a thought.

Flushing...

 second study conducted by Chinese researchers from Yangzhou University reported that flushing a public restroom toilet or urinal can release clouds of virus-laden aerosols that can be inhaled, posing a serious public health challenge. 
The scientists simulated and tracked virus-laden particle movements when toilets and urinals were flushed.  
The disturbing results revealed that the trajectory of the particles ejected from flushing showed that more than 57% of the particles traveled away from the urinal. The researchers further point out that when men use urinals in a public restroom, these tiny particles can reach their thigh within 5.5 seconds when compared to the toilet flush, which takes 35 seconds to reach slightly higher. 
“From our work, it can be inferred that urinal flushing indeed promotes the spread of bacteria and viruses,” said one of the study’s authors. “Wearing a mask should be mandatory within public restrooms during the pandemic, and anti-diffusion improvements are urgently needed to prevent the spread of COVID-19.”
