What is the best family beach in Delaware?

Personally, I like Towers Beach. It's right next to Dewey beach, but it's less crowded. It's peaceful. If you're looking for a more classic Delaware beach, I would visit Rehobeth beach. It's not the greatest beach anymore, it's kind of trashed and overrated. But the boardwalk there is nice. It has "Funland", with rides and games for kids, and there's shops all along the boardwalk. Also has the best taffy in the world (Snyder's).

Why doesn't Delaware charge sales tax?

Delaware does not have a sales tax because it wants to attract retail tenants to its shopping centers to lure consumers from surrounding states and grow the overall economy to improve its tax base. Consumers from other states travel to Delaware to make purchases, which results in a larger retail sector and overall economy for Delaware.
A sales tax is also a regressive tax which disproportionately taxes poor people, which is not good economic policy.
Delaware has more entities formed there than people. Those corporations, even if not located in Delaware, must pay a fee to Delaware every year and at the time of formation. When stock is lost in companies formed in Delaware, the value of that stock escheats to Delaware. In total, the incorporation industry in Delaware accounts for about 40% of the state's tax revenue. This allows it to fund its budget without a sales tax.
Delaware also has a very short stretch of interstate highways which charge very large tolls per mile. These tolls fund much of the state's highway budget and most of the money comes from drivers out of state, just passing through.

Delaware also has a "gross receipts tax" which is a "back-door sales tax" charged to the business of 1-2% of their total income.

Can you receive a Delaware Driver's License in Delaware if your License in New Jersey is suspended?

Simple answer, no. Not while the suspension of your New Jersey license is still ongoing. For one, to even be eligible to receive a Delaware license (even without the suspension), you must actually be domiciled in Delaware. Furthermore, states use an information sharing program... if you show up as having an active suspension in one state, they'll deny you a license in their state, even if you become domiciled in that state. Furthermore, even if you did somehow manage to slip through the cracks, you still wouldn't be able to legally drive in New Jersey - when a state suspends your license, they also suspend your driving privilege within that state (yes, privilege, not right). What that means is that you cannot drive in that state on any license, even after the suspension period of your license from that state ends, until you've paid the reinstatement fees.
