Two-year anniversary of The Undercurrent
Florida One Of The Worst States For Tax Fairness
Not only can they not attract enough new business to the state, but Florida’s Republicans have crafted a fundamentally unfair tax structure that hurts workingfamilies and those who seek to be upwardly mobile in society.
It has long been the goal of Florida Republicans to reward corporations and entities that handsomely contribute to campaigns. here

Women Taking Over Florida Politics
Like us, you might be
discouraged about the state of politics in our country today -- the lack of
decisive action on some of our most pressing problems, the tone of partisanship
and disrespect among some public officials. Well, I am not ready to
give up just yet. I believe very strongly that we need more women at all levels
of public office! And to this end, several years ago I co-founded Ruth's List,
an organization modeled after the very successful national organization, Emily's
List.

Lyft Driver Lisa Roberts On Local Cabbies
"Sorry these old cab drivers spent so much money, but people spent a lot of money on 8 tracks and DOS computers, which didn't stop technology or progress.Riders prefer Lyft because our cars smell better, we don't mind short rides, they don't have to argue with us about payment and most importantly, we don't leave them standing on a street in the middle of the night!"
Tampa Cabbie/Blogger Tim Fasano fires back here
Legal or not, Lyft is a fantastic service that is a necessity, especially in a city with Poor public transit like Tampa.
We continue to show the world that we are (What the late great Neil Rogers use to call us) "A nose-picking town."
