Rick Scott's Corporate Welfare

Florida INC. CEO Rick Scott wants $85 million to give to his corporate buddies. He apparently has given up on the idea that he can create jobs, which he claimed he would do in his election campaigns. Scott’s strategy to lure jobs from other states ignores the facts of job creation. Most new jobs are homegrown, not lured from elsewhere. here

Florida already has one of the lowest tax burdens in the nation and lax

 environmental regulations.  

St. Pete Beats Tampa

St. Pete was one of three cities in Florida to earn a 100 on the Human Rights Campaign’s Municipal Equality Index. Tampa also came out above the state average with a score of 86. That’s down, however, from its score of 97 last year. All scores are based on a 100-point scale. here

Sandy Murman's October Surprise

$600 Million Slush Fund

----------

"It's really nothing more than a $600M subsidy for more sprawl - exactly what Hillsborough County does not need." Kent Bailey

-----------

"Just another south county giveaway. Hundreds of millions flows to south county, where the developers don't pay shit and neither does the sprawling tax base." Jason Ball

----------

"Politicians and government workers go to jail for misappropriation of public funds. Remind them." 
Kevin O'Neill

----------

"Sinking to a new low. Appalling isn't even a full enough term to describe it!" Susan Lee

----------
"Never stop screwing us, huh?" Leslie O'Brien

Floridians Should Start Arming Themselves

Trump deplorables are openly talking about violent rebellion

 and assassination after 

they lose.

If she’s in office, I hope we can start a coup. She should be in prison or shot. 

We’re going to have a revolution and take 

them out of office.

There’s going to be a lot of bloodshed.

 But that’s what it’s going to take.

Local Trump Deplorable Gordon Brown

According to his Facebook page. He went to Plant and USF and worked for the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office. 

Some lady called him and gave him shit about the Trump signs in front of his business. 

Here is his response. 

---

"So THIS woman just called my business and told me off due to my TRUMP SIGNS. Here is her cell number! 

Text AWAY your support for TRUMP! The Audacity of this woman to call and "tell me off" for exercising my freedom of speech! 

Liberal POS!"

Here is what he had to say about the Dems and Black Lives Matter.

Thankfully he didn't hurt any of us while he 

was protecting us.

And what he had to say about Pat Kemp 

and Kathy Castor.

Mr. Brown if you talk to your friends Ms. Murman and Mr. Schock tell them to come out of hiding. Voters have some questions they would like to ask them.

From all the Liberal POS at this blog!

Right Wing Calhoun County, Florida

Calhoun County is a little rural county in Florida’s panhandle. It’s closer to Alabama than to Miami – and its citizens vote like Alabama. It’s two-thirds white and two-thirds of its votes went to Florida’s right-wing GOP governor in 2014. But on Oct. 4, the teachers in Calhoun County’s school system made history: They voted union, with theNational Education Association.  the NEA had to run an undercover campaign to organize them. That’s because Rick Scott, had convinced the overwhelmingly Republican state legislature, five years ago, to eliminate tenure. Say “the ‘u’ word” and you might be out of a job in an area like 
Calhoun County. here
