Flesh-Eating Bacteria In Florida Waters
Visiting Florida? Stay out of the water
Florida health officials are issuing their yearly warning to swimmers (and diners) about the dangers of a flesh-eating bacteria that’s caused two deaths already this year. There are two ways you can contract vibrio vulnificus — through swimming in infected water with an open wound or by eating raw shellfish contaminated with the bacteria. here

Miami Cuban Mafia Backs Jeb Bush
Mario (Frado) Diaz-Balart
Ileana (La Senora) Ros-Lehtinen
Two members of the powerful Miami Cuban Mafia are backing Bush over one of their own.
Marco (El Guapo) Rubio
We Know Jeb Bush Well
- It was Bush who, in violation of the Florida Constitution, repeatedly tried to take control of Terri Schiavo's very private end-of-life decision.
- He signed the "stand your ground" law in 2006 at the behest of the National Rifle Association.
- He implemented massive curtailments of early voting, resulting in the wholesale disenfranchisement of hundreds of thousands of Floridians, mostly African-American, in the 2008 election.
- He opposed gay rights.
- He ended affirmative action in state contracts and college admissions.
- Implemented a massive school voucher program.
- Signed any antiabortion bill the Legislature sent him.
- Billions in tax cuts to our wealthiest residents and corporations.
- To pay for his tax breaks, he shifted billions more in property taxes onto the backs of homeowners and borrowed at unprecedented levels.
- When he became governor, Florida had $13.2 billion in outstanding debt. When he left office in 2007, Florida's outstanding debt was over $23 billion, a 77 percent increase.
- Under his administration, everyday Floridians were left with higher property taxes and greater debt.

Florida GOP Approves More Corporate Welfare
$400 million in corporate welfare to special interest groups and targeted industries. Taxes would be slashed for boat and yacht repairs, jet fuel for aviation schools and gun club memberships
among them.
Florida GOP Jack Latvala of Clearwater, defended the tax cuts on boat repairs.
They did give us some scraps, cut our cell phone bills by about $20, give back-to-school shoppers 10 days of sales tax free shopping, and lower textbook prices for
college students.
"Please turn your dead brains back to the "on" position and start thinking critically about what the Legislature is doing. They give you $20 in your left pocket while stealing $100 from your right pocket by forcing you to subsidize their lobbyist friends." Susan Smith

More Bullshit In Hillsborough County
The county paid a million dollars on focus groups, surveys and polls to tell them that more people would vote yes to a half cent sales tax hike than a full cent.
And their research showed residents want to see more of that money spent building and repairing roads than improving public transportation.
See chart above. This is a lie.
we want rail.
we want rail.
Rail wasn't even on the survey form. They told us to write it in. Check out our post on April 29, 2015 of the last meeting. here, It was all a sham.
At that meeting in Temple Terrace we were told that light rail, opponent and local Tea Bagger Sharon Calvert attends every meeting,
where were you?
Hillsborough County Commissioners don't waste our time
NO RAIL? NO NEW TAXES!
