Monmouth University Students Have Suggestions On How New Jersey Can Increase Revenue

Three professors helped guide the seven students in The Department of Economics, Finance and Real Estate this past semester as they thought of ways New Jersey could increase revenue in an environmentally proactive way.

The students are suggesting a five cent tax on plastic bags, raising the gas tax to increase revenue, and changing specialty license plates.

The class says the state could generate about 400-million-dollars a year if it implements their suggestions.

The students plan to give their money-saving suggestions to Governor Jon Corzine.
