New Jersey residents and business owners will be taxed for rain runoff if they have long driveways, own parking lots, and so on, the NY Post reported.
Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy will gleefully sign a new bill approved by the New Jersey Senate and Assembly that will be taxing the rain.
The new legislation, inspired by former President Obama’s out of control Environmental Protection Agency, allows the state’s 565 municipalities to set up their own public stormwater utilities which would build and manage sewer systems, according to WLNY-TV.
The utilities will be able to tax properties with a lot of runoff since they have to filter the pollutants.

The Importance of Prayer: How a Christian Gold Company Stands Out by Defending Americans’ Retirement
New Jersey residents knew what they were voting for when they filled out a ballot for him.
HE’S A ‘PROGRESSIVE BLUE BEACON’
He is a Soros far-left Progressive who lives lavishly himself with his $7 million dollar villa.
The Soros guy established a state agency to aid and protect illegal aliens.
Phil Murphy, the former Ambassador to Germany under Barack Obama, has established the Office of Immigrant Defensive Protection to help protect people here illegally.
While the excuse is to fight the much-vilified Donald Trump, it is actually to fight and flout our laws and maintain open borders for future Democrats.
He is the lapdog of George Soros.
The governor wants to make New Jersey “a Progressive Blue Beacon” with all that entails from legalizing weed; raising taxes, especially on millionaires to redistribute the money to the “poor”; raising the minimum wage; and enacting environmental [extremism] climate change regulations.
He is a close friend of potential racist and baby killer Governor Northam.
Murphy speaks regularly with Bill Clinton and Barack Obama.
The Governor received endorsements from the hard-left U.S. Sens. Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren and got large donations from billionaire super donors George Soros and Donald Sussman.
This is what it means to be a Progressive. They are only happy when they are taxing people.
Been doing it Portland Maine for awhile now, there is nothing the left will not tax
Good thing they didn’t try to levy a tax on happiness in New Jersey! There is very little to be found in a Socialist and Communist run State where the PC Straight jacket is commanded to be worn by everyone.
Rights such as 2A are denied. The Socialist Leaders of New Jersey do not encourage happiness they won’t allow it. They demand strict adhearance to PC but allow Infanticide. I pity Citizens behind the wire of Socialism in New Jersey..
i lived in a german village in the 1990’s and the german government took photos of people’s roofs to tax them for the rain that went in their drain system. the water barrels were also calculated located on their down spouts. viva auslander!
“Redistribution of wealth” is a worn out cliche with Robin Hood overtones. The socialist-democrats tax and regulate to siphon off as much as they can to line their own pockets and those of the politically connected. The wealthy can either move away or get exemptions. The middle class can afford neither. So, the middle class ends up paying the bill for the largesse of the socialist-democrats, thus creating a 2 class system. New Jersey is on the precipice of becoming another California (Venezuela).
Destroying New Jersey turning it into a poverty stricken area except for the well connected.
