Florida's Culture Of Corruption: Public (Corporate) Service Commission
Will have to stream its meetings live on a website, but it won't be forced to impose new restrictions on the powerful utility industry that holds sway over its commissioners. here
Florida Inc. Corporate Owned And Operated

retail groups have

Take Action To Save The Everglades From Big Sugar
It’s time to protect our water by ending the deadlock on Everglades restoration once and for all. What has been called "the most critical piece of land ever for Everglades restoration" could be bought this year, but Big Sugar, who agreed to sell this land to the public in 2010, is trying to run out the clock, hoping you won’t notice.
Sign the petition to the Florida Legislature today and tell them to buy this critical land south of Lake Okeechobee. We can help save the Everglades from Big Sugar and protect Florida’s drinking water all at the same time. here
Seminole Heights Fights FDOT and Wins
Seminole Heights is a historic streetcar suburb, three miles north of Downtown Tampa. During the 1990s, still recovering from the dark days of urban America's 1980s, the neighborhood found itself in a fight for its life. FDOT had plans to widen Hillsborough Avenue through the heart of the neighborhood. DOT saw the road as part of a six-lane divided highway with turn lanes running from Pinellas to Polk counties. Their $33.5 million plan to widen Hillsborough Avenue only included the cost of a chain-link in the budget. On the other hand, the historic district's residents envisioned a four-lane boulevard with trees, period streetlights, landscaped medians and brick crosswalks.
Something had to give. Seminole Heights residents convinced FDOT to make concessions by embracing their four-lane boulevard concept. 20 years later, now featuring mature landscaping, this stretch of Hillsborough Avenue shines above the rest of US 92's path through Hillsborough County and the dire traffic congestion predictions have not materialized. here

Rick Scott following the disastrous Brownback model
Scott pledged over $266,000,000.00 in tax breaks and incentives for the promise of 45,258 jobs, a large portion of which went to minimum wage jobs with annual salaries that don't even break the poverty line.
Public transportation is a complete joke in this state, and our roads are infamously clogged (unless you want to pay thousands in the extremely corrupted tolling agencies). Rick Scott cut over a billion in education spending and has led the attack on higher education. Scientists are held in very low regard by our state government. Our health care needs are huge, but thanks to Scott and the GOP refusing all subsidies for Medicaid, a a Florida citizen with kids needs to make UNDER $3200 A YEAR to qualify! Our pollution laws have been gutted, and our state is the most vulnerable to rising sea levels. here
Florida Inc.: 5-point Work Plan 2015
“Tax Relief.” If only that meant collecting some of the billions Florida loses annually in uncollected corporate taxes. If legislators stopped rubber-stamping loopholes, incentives and offshore tax havens that bring nothing in return except millions in thankful corporate contributions to their campaign committees.
Take 2014 (please). Big businesses and corporate advocacy groups spent untold millions on campaign contributions, then benefited from billions in “tax relief.” Us common folk, our tax relief amounted to an average annual $25 savings on auto fees. here
NPA Rules In Florida
The latest to join the list are two affluent, adjoining counties in Northeast Florida, Clay and St Johns, where Democrats are now in effect a third party.
The combination of unaffiliated and minor-party voters accounted for 26.6 percent of all Florida voters in January, according to the Division of Elections website. They now outnumber Democrats in six counties: Clay, Collier, Lee, Okaloosa, Santa Rosa and St. Johns. They outnumber Republicans in five: Broward, Miami-Dade, Orange, Osceola and Palm Beach.Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach are the three most populous counties in Florida. Three more counties are likely to soon join this anti-major party registration trend. They are Charlotte, Martin and Monroe, where in all three places nonpartisan voters are closing in on Democrats. here

Jeb@jeb.org
Earlier this year, The Tampa Bay Times reported, "The former governor conducted all his communication on his private Jeb@jeb.org
account and turned over the hand-selected batch to the state archives when he left office. Absent from the stash are emails the governor deemed not relevant to the public record: those relating to politics, fundraising and personal matters while he was governor." here
