I have to say, I am greatly enjoying this lesson in "where's my money going?" but it's also a little disconcerting at the same time. From what I gather, NJ folks working in NYC do next to nothing for income taxes for either localities, and they do nothing for NJ state in terms of other taxes since those are being applied directly to the municipalities and counties? So what exactly are NJ states tax revenue streams? If they're paying so little into NJ state, and NJ state is paying for NJ Transit, and NJ Transit is the reason why these people can get into Manhattan and not contribute money to NJ State which is paying for these peoples trains/buses, then why the fuck is anything (bus or train) running into NYC from NJ? |
