It's telling how Florida experienced an estimated 258 Billion in damages from Hurricane Ian but the Florida State Budget of 120 billion hasn't increased, when controlling for inflation. Someone is getting short changed and it's not the super wealthy as Florida has a regressive income tax system.
It's telling how Florida experienced an estimated 258 Billion in damages from Hurricane Ian but the Florida State Budget of 120 billion hasn't increased, when controlling for inflation. Someone is getting short changed and it's not the super wealthy as Florida has a regressive income tax system.
Other than mooching off the Federal government, what is the plan for the next hurricane and all the other environmental challenges Florida is facing? No wonder DeSantis is waging so many cultural wars. He's unwilling to do what is necessary to address the existential crises that Floridians face now and in the near future. That would require raising taxes on the super wealthy by changing the regressive tax system for starters. Currently, those who are tapped out by Ian, and can't afford to rebuild or rent are struggling and need help. DeSantis and Republican representatives are running a shell game. One more Hurricane Ian or worse and it will be over for DeSantis and Florida Republicans.
This is how unserious the Koch puppet is about addressing Climate Change, after over 5 years in office:
Robert; thanks for your comment. Not only did they not address the damages from hurricane Ian they passed a law making it harder for policy holders to sue for damages the insurance company's refuse to cover. This-despite the fact- the policy ensures coverage. And another thing. Because of DeSantis and his Republican Legislative sycophants passing an incredibly anti-migrant law; construction workers, farm workers, the entertainment industry workers, restaurant workers,, hotel works, and truck drivers are leaving the state in droves. Farmers are literally begging them to stay or the crops will be lost. These very people supported DeSantis and the Republican Party.
