Governor-Elect Rick Scott: Let’s Get To Work http://www.northescambia.com/2010/11/fla-governor-elect-rick-scott-lets-get-to-work Local News for Molino, Bratt, McDavid, Century, Walnut Hill, Cantonment Sat, 18 Apr 2026 20:22:14 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Ms Dorsett http://www.northescambia.com/2010/11/fla-governor-elect-rick-scott-lets-get-to-work/comment-page-1#comment-60581 Ms Dorsett Mon, 15 Nov 2010 23:36:27 +0000 http://www.northescambia.com/?p=33988#comment-60581 I am an unemployed veteran, with two kids in college and one I have to pay out of pocket for. I made a very good living while employed and I'm not one to ask for a handout, but, if I have paid into uneployment for so very many years, I don't understand why so many people,( that has not one living clue what it's like to get so ridiculously behind in normal bills), are so against those getting helped that have helped more than just themselves. So, we continue to give tax breaks to individuals whose net worth can be more than a small community? Let's get real. It's so easy to sit on the other side of the lake and talk about "Let's set employment for 12 weeks and nothing more" when you've never had to apply for unemployment. No, I DID NOT vote for Rick Scott, b/c I don't believe he has a real understanding of his fellow Floridians, yet he knows far too many that have lost their homes, cars, jobs...their livelihoods in general, I'd like to see just what he's going to do to "let's get to work." I hope it's not just a slogan but reality. Or is it politics as usual? I am an unemployed veteran, with two kids in college and one I have to pay out of pocket for.

That's why it's called unemployment insurance. Those who don't pay for unemployment INSURANCE don't qualify for the benefits.

Let your Government know what it is that you want. Use your email, phones and letters! Get involved. We all need to make an effort to have our voices heard in Tallahassee!
