The Monmouth University/Gannett New Jersey Poll found 49 percent of New Jersey adults would like to move out of the state, compared to 44 percent who would prefer to stay and 7 percent who are unsure.

The poll found 51 percent of those who want to leave say they're very likely to make good on that wish, with most of the those who want to leave adults less than 50 years of age and earning between $50,000 and $100,000 per year.


Other top reasons for wanting to leave New Jersey include the weather, environment, longing for a change of scenery, overdevelopment, congestion and government corruption.

I guess I'm a statistic now =) I left!

This article written by a high school journalist or what? Good thing that paper hires really good proofreaders.

And New Jersey doesn't suck. I guess I am part of the other 49%

Oh look at that... a dot.
Say, that's a nice dot. How much you want for it?


For you? Fellow ATOTer and all... Nothing. But at some time in the future, I'm going to ask you for a favor... and no matter what it is... you can not say no.

Here's your dot.

Don't forget our deal.

One good turn deserves another ;) As long as it doesn't involve travel to New Jersey.

Aw, don't be like that. It's such a nice dot, we might be able to work something out. I just don't want to end up a statistic.

I've seen those doorbuster lines in Burbank. Plus I doubt those twofers are such nice quality dots. What if the Chinese dots contain lead? Also what if I stand in line all morning for a slash and all they have are backslashes and asterisks?

i know whoozer has some nice dots but it really comes down to price to performance. you can get an equally effective dot for much cheaper i think, theres a lot of marketing built into his price. just my .03

But I'm giving my dots away... I'm merely reserving a simple favor to be paid out some time in the future... who knows... maybe i'll never even collect on that favor.

Sounds like a great deal to me. :evil:

I do appreciate a good bang for the buck, but I hate waiting in line. I might just pick a couple up next month so I can play with them without having to worry about wear and tear on this one. Only on special occasions ;)

That's right, for the real mccoy it's a heck of a deal. Favors are easier to exchange than rebates :D

We can consult Rossman if you're that worried but I maintain that with the terms I've established, despite the apparent uncertainty of the future 'favor' payment that may come due, my dots are a great deal...

Thanks for your concern, I really do think it's a nice dot though. It has sentimental value to it as well. No need to wake Rossman, the less people who breathe on it the better for its longevity.

I do agree the price of living in NJ, in many parts, is out of hand. A 280k town house is kind of ridiculous. Worst part about that is the job market is not like NYC where everybody gets paid 10-20k more for working in the city. So the cost of living goes up more than our wages.

And yeah, they build the houses before they build the roads. We are surrounded by major cities and NJ is the parking lot.
