  1. Schools raised tuition by more than 15 or 16K? Is that a typo? Who in Lakewood charges that much even as baseline tuition?

  3. So the public ends up paying for the tax abatements.... And around about way we don't get busing and we have to pay LSTA fees.... Because the township can't afford to kick in that much for busing... While at the same time we are paying more tuition, and people close to the pot are getting tax abatements for absolutely no reason at all..... The idea of tax abatements is to encourage development not when they got free land and they don't need any encouragement whatsoever.... What a shame that yeshiva graduates... Are so dishonest

    1. After a Jew dies he will be asked in the heavenly court if he was honest in business. We will have to answer that question. Those that are dishonest here will pay the price there. The world is topsy turvy. Those that you may think are awesome might be discovered as not so awesome. From my experience, you can't control other people only yourself. It's painful to watch this town's management manipulate the people and not do what they were voted in for but judgement day eventually comes for all.
