"New Jersey's affordable housing program is a manufactured crisis. They created the problem and now claim only they can fix it. They raised your taxes, overspent, wasted billions, and now you're left relying on them for help. It's one of the best manufactured crises of this generation. High taxes drive up the cost of labor, material, and land. That makes development too expensive to develop without financial assistance. So the state steps in with tax credits and abatements to subsidize developers. Funded by the same taxpayers, you, that they already overtaxed. You paid twice, once when they taxed you the first time, and then again when they used that money to solve the problems the taxes created. This is what I like to call the subsidy cycle. High taxes slow development, so they issue tax credits to restart it, which requires more revenue, which means more taxes, which slows development again. They are literally funding the solution to the problem with the taxes they took from you. So what do we do? We cut taxes, we reduce spending, we lower the cost of doing business in New Jersey, and developers build without subsidies because the numbers work on their own. No tax credits needed, no abatements needed, no government programs needed. So the solution to New Jersey's affordable housing crisis isn't more government programs. We don't need more taxes. We have enough money. You need to stop taking more from us and let us build on our own."
