Tell incumbents to start packing I was not surprised to hear of the large number of New Jersey residents who have fled the state. ("More New Jerseyans leaving state," Oct. 10.) I attribute this "great escape" to three simple things: the highest taxes in the country, the most corrupt officials in the country and the mass development using abusive condemnation and eminent domain. When you tax the people out, rob the people out and throw the people out of their homes and businesses, what did you expect would happen? These three problems are controlled by 120 elected officials sent to Trenton by the same people who later wake up and start packing to move. Those of us who have not started boxing up our possessions have an opportunity to do something to fix the problem. On Nov. 6, send all 120 incumbents back to private life by voting for some new Senate and Assembly people who are dedicated to lower spending, smaller government, fewer taxes, honest government and development without the use of eminent domain for private developer gain.
