Florida going downhill - get the hell out

Quote from IShopAtPublix:

As a rule of thumb, major metropolitan areas tend to be less rabid republican than usual.

As a rule of thumb if the democrats have been in control of a major metropolitan area for more than 10 years - you will see major financial problems and sky high taxes on the horizon. Stay away from cities run by democrats. They have systematically destroyed the tax base in just about every city they control.

New York in the hands of democrats. A disaster. Atlanta, Philly, L.A., California is being destroyed by democratic legislature.

How anyone can not see that democrats destroy cities is beyond me. it is the history of cities. Dems get in control - raise taxes - tax base moves.

Texas:

1)Gave us W
2)Gave us W
3)Gave us W

There's a tee shirt that's perfect for you. Imprinted within an outline of the state of Texas is:

SOMEWHERE IN TEXAS
A VILLAGE IS MISSING
ITS IDIOT

Quote from AAAintheBeltway:

As for Florida, the problem is not republicans but fake republicans like the current governor. The state has some major problems, like a real estate crash, insurance and water issues and budget problems.

Uh huh, Republicans are doing a great job in Florida. Their latest adventure in legislation is an attempt to suppress voter registration and turnout. Unlike his sad predecessor Jebbie, Crist has done a good job governing toward the middle and for the people rather than his party. Don't be at all surprised if he vetoes the aforementioned voter crap if it passes.

If Jebbie didn'y cause major problems, like a real estate crash, insurance and water issues and budget problems, he surely exacerbated them.

I lived in Florida while Jeb Bush was governor.

I never voted for his dad and I voted for w once.

But, I will say Jeb seem to do a great job as governor.

I have no idea why you are blaming him.

The florida legislative body seemed to be so numb to the demands of the people - I suspect they are as corrupt as the California legilature.

If you saw how city spending when up dramatically as taxes rose you would know what caused the problems.

The insurance issue is a combination of bad policy and insurers recognizing Florida might be a big risk going forward.

If jeb bush caused these problems - I would like to see proof.

I could then despise the whole bush family.
