  • Open Space Trust Fund: Another Hit for NJ Taxpayers

    01/11/2014 Duration: 41min

    New Jerseyans will be asked to vote on an Open Space Trust Fund this Election Day - November 4th.If approved, it will cost voters $150 billion annually to preserve space in NJ and will result in an amendment to our state Constitution.While Open Space is a great concept, 30% of NJ is already preserved, with only 32% of the state developed.Those facts aside, NJ was just voted as the worst state for taxes, residents deal with some of the highest property taxes in the country and we have unfunded pension liabilities.  How much more taxation can the residents of NJ take?  Not much more because NJ also boasts one of the highest rates of residents fleeing the state due to over-taxation.Joining us to discuss the Open Space Trust Fund is Daryn Iwicki, NJ State Director for Americans for Prosperity.www.CommonSenseNJ.com                             FacebookThank you to Montville Executive Suites for advertising with Common Sense NJ!

  • They're Coming for Your First Amendment

    12/09/2014 Duration: 49min

    Free speech.  The First Amendment to our Constitution.Yet, it seems as if not all free speech is equally protected.In the name of tolerance, only certainly speech is tolerated.  If you are "pro" anything American, patriotic or religious, you are now labeled "intolerant" by a group that claims we must co-exist.Want to fly the American Flag?  Show your support for our military?  Defend traditional marriage?  Dare to wish someone a "blessed day?  Then you need to be prepared to lose your job, be investigated by the IRS, get your page shut down by Facebook and be called some of the most nasty of names by those who tell us we must "co-exist."Want to hold a Black Mass on a college Campus?  Want to bring someone on campus convicted of murdering a police officer?  Want to bring a terrorist to speak at your campus?  That's all protected under the First Amendment according to the left.The caveat is that we can only have a First Amendment and co-exist as long as we conform to what liberals say is okay.The reality is tha
