    We are the most privileged township in the entire Ocean County. That's because our committeemen voted themselves to be the highest paid elected officials in the County. And this is even without including all the expensive bonuses they give themselves, like FREE lifetime health insurance and THREE HUNDRED PERCENT RAISES for their MUA salaries, etc. I wonder what other creative ideas they've devised to pad their wallets with our hard-earned tax dollars.

    Oh, how lucky we are!

    We should all be singing אשרינו מה טוב חלקינו to express how delighted we are!!

  3. Skver may not build a town within 10 miles of my house. If they do, we have the right to harass them and treat them like they do to the Hillcrest Kehilla

  4. Skver may be in contract for the Six Flags jungle, not in close proximity to anyone but the animals. Shouldn't bother us!

  5. The frum news sites are nothing but click bate machines to get traffic and hits which means more money from ads. look at the made up fake letters about stupid ideas how people fall for it.
    Like the rehashed article about animal crackers which was printed in the readers write years ago and posted on the lakewood scoop. It's ridiculous.

    1. So, just like Glatt Bite, they provide a service people want, and make money doing so. What a terrible thing!

    2. Good investigative work if true this should shock everyone of what is going on with the vaccine push in Lakewood

    3. When you read articles like that, it is easy to get impressed. It looks like real investigative work with links, numbers and codes.
      Then you start actually checking things up and you see the lies behind the articles, and how much of that stuff is based on same old same old conspiracy theories. If something is 'tied' to something else that is 'linked' to an organization that has 'a connection' with Bill Gates, that itself serves as 'proof' of something. I guess there are fools out there who have made Gates Public Enemy No. 1, but that is just another conspiracy theory based on nothing.
      Eventually the thesis falls like a house of cards and the anti vaccination crowd are proven again to be liars, fools and sometimes illness profiteers.
      Remember, the information is sourced to about 12 people, who have made fantastic sums of money convincing you that 'big Pharma' is making too much money on their claims

    4. When you read responses like anon 4:34 - doesn't refute any of the claims just tries to belittle anyone against vaccines with the same talking points.
      I don't necessarily share the same views and issues this guy has but there are interesting and serious issues that were raised that I am interested in knowing.. Why can't there be under reporting for adverse affects? We know the Government feels/felt the need to vaccinate everyone the Israeli official the other day even admitted slot of the restrictions were only to get people to vaccinate... Things are done by the government cause they feel it's worth it - and we can't show or say the truth cause it's going to hinder what needs to be done which we feel is safe.. Did someone really get the shot in our community and have a heart attack within 48hrs? That's scary - I know they found blockages but was this the final straw? We tend to blame all covid deaths based on what was the ultimate cause - should we not do the same with vaccines?
