In some cases, Citizens pay three to four percent of the market value of their property each year.

This is not acceptable. It is the result of a fiscally irresponsible legislature. It leads to the destruction of private property ownership, which violates the Bill of Rights and is contrary to the free market principles needed to provide a strong foundation for American strength and prosperity.

NJ property taxes must be reduced to less than one percent of market value. NJ Government must learn to live within the reduced government revenues that will be the result of  lower property taxes.
