When it comes to the quality of public schools, there is literally no data that exists showing that higher property taxes/more spending correlates with better educational outcomes and plenty of data showing that there is basically no correlation. Massachusetts has similar if not better public schools and average property taxes there were more than 30% lower than NJ's in 2022.

This BS of treating ever-increasing NJ property taxes as a requirement for having good public schools needs to end because it's demonstrably false. We are a highly skilled and educated state so how have people here unquestioningly imbibed this garbage line of thinking?
