MUNICIPAL CORRUPTION

THERE IS A SAYING IN NJ,"YOU DO NOT FIGHT CITY HALLS.THEY CAN FINANCIALLY RUIN YOU,CAN HARM YOUR FAMILY AND GET YOU EVEN KILLED." TOGETHER WE CAN CHANGE THIS IMAGE OF OUR CITY HALLS WHICH ARE RUN BY LOCAL GANGS. IT IS THE SAME SET OF CORRUPT,COMMUNAL,CRIMINAL PEOPLE AND THEIR CRONIES YEAR AFTER YEAR WHO ARE CONTROLLING OUR CITY HALLS IN DIFFERENT TOWNS. THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR CORRUPTION AND RACISM IN THEM. THEY ARE THREAT TO OUR DEMOCRACY, TO OUR FUTURE AND THE FUTURE OF OUR NEXT GENERATIONS.

NEW JERSEY A NATIONAL SHAME

NEW JERSEY'S 250,000 FAILING STUDENTS & 9,000 ELECTED OFFICIALS, A NATIONAL SHAME?

Most urbanized state in the union with highest corruption, highest property tax and costliest schools, New Jersey’s multiple governments are spending too much. We have 25 times more municipalities, school boards, personals and 40 times more elected politicians/officials. Nowhere in the world are 8.5 Million residents being governed by 9,000 corrupt & unethical Elected officials backed by corrupt & unethical aprx. 4000 attorneys and 580 police chiefs etc in 566 legally racially segregated towns with an area of 8,721 sq. miles. 38% people live in 46 poor towns and 62% lives in 520 towns, a worst example of moral corruption of segregated housing with racial isolation.

Even capital Delhi of Poster Boy “India” corrupt democracy for American media for its 14 million residents have 206 Elected Officials and 1 Education Director for 3035 state run schools. All of these makes NJ the most corrupt and non-secular state in whole world.

Self Rule in NJ is all a sham, a make believe democracy by immoral, corrupt politicians and attorneys.
Instead of 566 Municipalities; 21 or even less number of county governments can provide educational, police, social welfare, health, recreation and other services to their residents. Instead of 70 police chiefs in one county just one, instead of 70 school superintendents in one county just one. After Municipal Courts, School Boards are biggest dens of corruption, for those with personal interest; teachers, parents, school superintendents, board members to steal and plunder tax payer’s money at the cost of the education. School tax represents almost 50% of the property tax in NJ. Still there are more than 250,000 students out of the total student population of 1.4 million, who failed to pass academic assessments. 40% of them are alone in Newark, Jersey City, Paterson and Camden, that raises the worst example of racial isolation in our schools. Such a large population of poorly educated citizens will be a drag on future economic growth of NJ.

The time is now for a Constitutional Convention to tackle the fundamental problem of NJ government’s unethical, corrupt and racist structure. Home rule is an ancient tradition whose time has passed. We must modernize our government. We must bring back morality, ethics, honesty and secularism back in public office. Then the first order of business should be to prioritize what is important and eliminate what is no longer affordable or needed like almost 9,000 elected politicians, 3,500 attorneys 672 school superintendents and over 500 Police Chiefs. Then find ways to improve economic conditions, which will increase state revenue to elevate the standard of living by providing quality education to less fortunate residents of this state. Then only we can make this state a melting pot for people with diverse cultural & economic backgrounds.

When only 1 in 4 American between the ages of 18 to 34 reads a newspaper on daily basis, hardly fewer can identify their local and state leader leave aside national leaders. It is time to promote a strong campaign of citizen re-engagement. We must inspire earnest, honest, ethical and secular people to seek public office. The public deserves assurances that it can rely on the integrity, honesty and secularism of its Elected and Appointed officials and there are ethical & economic reasons to put them in public office. The goal must be to build Ethical Culture that honors not only the letter but also the spirit of the laws. The present culture of if it is legal, it is ethical is dead wrong. It has to be Ethical First to be legal. Just because you have a right to do something, does not mean it is right thing to do. NJ’s 9000 Elected Scoundrels and a battalion of other officials who are not needed must think in ethical, moral and economic terms do they have the right to govern the residents the way they are unethically, dishonestly governing them at present?
