Marla Speaks Out

"I got a lot of flack from the homeowner association about doing this. It seems that even though we live in Hometown USA. We must fill out an ARC form just to make your neighborhood beautiful. This really made me angry. Its not like I was putting unsightly trash on the porch or around my house. I also got homeowners violations for the patio furniture I put outside. My question is are we really free in hometown USA?" ......Marla The Plant Lady

Florida Rising

As much of the national attention focuses on the massive pro-union demonstrations in Madison, Wisconsin, where over a 100,000 people gathered to oppose an anti-union law on Saturday, March 12, Florida workers and activists are taking aim against budget cuts and laws that threaten to further widen the already huge divide between rich and poor in our state.

Tampa Bay Zeitgeist Presentation

and the website Code Green Community.

Rick Scott vs. The People Of Florida

Governor Rick Scott's proposed budget would cut funding for public schools, lay off thousands of state workers, and give corporations a $1.5 billion tax cut. But worst of all, Republicans in Tallahassee are pushing a permanent, across-the-board funding limit that would prevent
the state from ever restoring these draconian cuts.

Wisconsin showed that the people are not going to let corporations and their allies on the right trample the American Dream without a fight. Now we have to send that same message in Florida.
