Us Floridians shouldn’t be surprised. Rick Scott campaigned on runnin Florida like a business, we just didn’t know he was going to run it like his own personal money making business. Slick Rick is denying federal infrastructure funds on the basis of his own twisted value system(say good bye to those construction jobs). Next he tried to buy off voters with a property tax decrease, well guess how much an average middle class homeowner gets back? 28 BUCKS!!!! The only people who benefited from slick rick’s giveaway were large land owners like FPL and Disney. They stand to pay millions less in taxes EACH YEAR, not a bad investment for only donating a million each to Scott. This guy is something else.

I know a little about back room dealings-I think the governor know a WHOLE LOT MORE about shady dealings.

Privitization is never a good thing when it comes to corrections!

I don’t think privitation was a good thing. The roads used to be done by the prison road crews and they looked good. Now they are a mess and we are paying more money for a less than desirable job being done. If this an idication of how the prisons will be run I’m not impressed.

This should be of no surprise, the citizens of Florida knew about Scott’s shady dealings, before they voted him to office. I hope after the economic collaspe, West Florida elects good leadership. We are going to need a flag?
