Why do I want to pay lot more money to be under 100 degree sun wasting the whole day picking apples like one of them abused migrant workers, when I can just walk into wholefood and pick some up for less than 10 bucks.

Despite all you accusations. Everything was less expensive with Trump! On the very day the fed raised interest rates nitwit in chief biden states he wishes he could hand out more money. Unreal!

Trump wasn't JUST A LOUD MOUTH. TRUMP WAS and IS a CRIMINAL. HE ALSO NEGOTIATED A DEAL BETWEEN THE SAUDIS AND RUSSIA TO REDUCE THE PRODUCTION OF OIL TO BENEFIT THE OIL INDUSTRY. He ALSO USED OUR TAX $$$$ TO PAY HIS SON IN LAW AND DAUGHTER $680,000,000 in fees above and beyond their salaries.

Just a reminder, natural gas was cheap under Trump, yes, he was a loudmouth but people could afford to heat their homes. We have hundreds of years of fossil fuels in the US and was energy independent under Trump.

FYI:
Natural gas prices are up over 250% compared to last year. By some forecasts will be up 400%+ by mid-winter. Since NJ has been replacing coal and nuclear with natural gas, the price increases will raise electric rates dramatically as well. If you have a commercial meter and haven't locked in a rate, you will see the cost increases soon. Residential meters, the increases will be phased in over time. Last year gas supply rates were running at $0.30 to $0.45 per therm.  https://seekingalpha.com/news/3873898- ... -prices-near-record-highs

Not only was he hurt by this woman (all caught on camera), his bike was destroyed and he can't do his job! That is outrageous. I hope he sues her into the stone age. She could at least offer to buy him a new bike, she can well afford it on her income, the fact she lives in an income-restricted apartment building meant for people earning less than $60,000 (she earns over three times that) AND she apparently doesn't pay her vet bills or traffic tickets! What the hell? She's like former Mayor Healy all over again. The rules that apply to the rest of us just don't apply to her. Appauling. Rot in hell (or at least prison) Ms. DeGise!

This N.J. city is now America’s most expensive for renters, site saysIf you’re a renter in Jersey City, we salute you. You’re paying the highest rent prices in the entire country, according to a report conducted by listings service Rent.com. And you saw the third largest increase in rent prices, year over year, in the United State. The average rent in Jersey City jumped from $3,308 in 2021 to $5,500 in 2022. That’s an increase of 66.25%. Your neighbors in Hoboken also made the list of the Top 10 highest rents in the country, clocking in at No. 7 with an average rent bill of $4,264, which increased 21.46% from last year. https://www.nj.com/news/2022/07/this-n ... or-renters-site-says.html

Hit-and-run victim calls for Jersey City councilwoman’s resignation, says he’s considering lawsuitThe man thrust into spotlight when he was struck by Jersey City Councilwoman-at-Large Councilwoman Amy DeGise in a hit-and-run last week says DeGise’s decision to leave the scene shows she is unfit to hold office. “Anybody can make a mistake,” 29-year-old Andrew Black told The Jersey Journal Thursday, “but a hit-and-run is a felony.” (Hit-and-runs can be either misdemeanors or felonies in New Jersey, depending on whether they cause injury. In this case, DeGise has not been charged with a felony offense.) https://www.nj.com/hudson/2022/07/hit- ... -considering-lawsuit.html

I think it's time to say adios to Dunlop and his team of socialists. I'm all for affordable houses but not at any costs. people in affordable housing should be paying their fair share.....that's the problem with projects....residents of many projects complain about all the problems but that's because they don't pay for upkeep

Its Elmar Auto Repair and he isn't in Jersey City he is located in
Elmar Auto Repair 15 Anderson Ave, Fairview NJ owners name us Elmar they always charge me the best prices. 2012 Subaru Forester 2.5XT Touring - both front axels - all 4 brakes, disks cross drilled & pads - front left head light rewired the socket clip fell off for the main light bulb - Front left suspension mount All for 1600$ They fixed my neighbors 2014 Audi Q5 for a couple hundred dollars when the dealership quoted 2K for the fix. His garage is only 21 minutes away from Coles & Hamilton Park in Jersey City. So it's not far at all. Especially if you want to save money for a great mechanic. Dealership told me a minimum 2500$ if it took them longer than a certain amount of time then 3300$. Elmar had it done in about 3 hours I went home and came back because his shop is so small there is no waiting area but there are restaurants near by and a Burger King etc if you don't want like BBQ rib, or hispanic food.

Has anyone been hearing the loud obnoxious music behind Tonnelle ave. ? Those large pop-up gatherings are happening again west of Tonnelle Ave. behind the Ringside Bar and the cemetery by the PSE&G facility at Van Kuren and James Avenues. Large gangs of twenty to thirty people having sound battles with speakers as bis as garbage cans powered by generators. It usually occurs on the weekends after midnight. The "music" reverberates and resonates throughout the Western Slope. The North District police captain, Ward D councilman, and other elected officials are aware of this. Stil, call the radio room (201) 547-5477 to prioritize the issue.

People should buy the Jersey Journal, the 2022 Senior of the Year for Jersey City is Laverne Webb Washington by the County Executive and the Board of Commissioners. Different seniors are picked, the article notes that the winner in Secaucus was voted for so the rest must be picked by the County. It is in the July 23, 2022 edition.

Interesting data coming out of the UK comparing vaccinated rates with hospitalization rates.
 https://twitter.com/lchf_matt/status/1549974053766606850 Potential reasons for this in part is covered by MedCram. The virus spike protein has mutated significantly from the spike protein generated by the mRNA jabs. Possibly to the point of providing negative efficacy.

Higher taxes and the Jersey City Police do not enforce the noise ordinance during sleep hours, such as bass vibrating speakers of neighbors after midnight every night. I cannot wait to move out of Jersey City, to another town where quality of life matters to the government. We pay police salaries, overtime and generous pensions but no enforcement of the law to get a decent night’s sleep. Absolutely horrible!

What Civic Parent does not show is how much the average homeowner is paying that was transferred from affordable housing and rent control properties. The pictures on tax abatements changes because some do expire but it has always been 1/4 of properties were tax abated which pays no school taxes and that does not include rent control which is exempt from tax increases under the Consumer Price Index. Yet other Hudson County towns do allow taxes increases to be passed on to tenants. The bottom line is, if others pay their fair share of government, out taxes would be lowered.

Some years ago, the Jersey Journal had an article on this subject. Since the city receives federal funding, they cannot turn away non-citizens and non-residents. Besides the Biden administration made an announcement that non-citizens will get federal funded housing.https://www.theblaze.com/news/biden-illegal-immigrants-housing-aid

Do you know of any official online information source to verify this? The only thing that comes up when I search is something you wrote. I'm not doubting it, but if this is the case it IS a big deal that people should be aware of.

Affordable Housing is code for cheap housing that is excluded from taxes. It is a contract that pays the city a flat fee and no school taxes. Really, it is housing that illegal immigrants get first shot at, I did a lot of voter registration in the 1990s and 90% of affordable housing then had immigrants. It does not mean they are bad people, but people should know why their taxes go up.

I was there when politicians came to JC and asked citizens to vote for the income tax. They said it would replace property taxes. So, they lied. This was 1976. Too bad the internet was not around then, but the mayor and city council should hold them accountable for their promise of the past. I still remember one politician saying property tax for public schools is not fair.
