Hodge Podge of Taxiness:

New York State is bankrupt and this is forcing representatives to do two things: either dig in their heals and refuse to cut services or become fiscal conservatives, at least for a time, when faced with such a reality. 

Governor Patterson, who in the past was trying to take, at least in part, a fiscally conservative approach, is now giving in to the democratic machinery and will be raising taxes on an already over-taxed constituency which will drive more people out of a state which is already losing income and taxpayers at a concerning rate. 

Governor Patterson seems like a person who is trying to be all things to all people, while lauding a hopeful increase in sales taxes and cigarette taxes recently to praising New Jersey for their tax cap today; he seems to be of a confused fiscal identity. 

Speaking of New Jersey, today they put a cap on property taxes.  There will now be a two percent annual limit to how much property taxes can be raised.  It’s not enough, but it’s a start.  From the New York Times:

 http://www.nytimes.com/2010/07/13/nyregion/13taxes.html?_r=1&ref=nyregion

Statewide, property taxes rose about 70 percent over the last decade, and New Jersey has the highest in the country: more than $2,600 per person. In public opinion polls, property taxes often top the list of state residents’ concerns.

So this is a great step for New Jersey residents in protecting their private property from liberals and unions.  It would be great to see this law and attitude implemented nation wide.
