By keeping the economy open, maintaining a low tax environment, and being fiscally responsible, Florida’s FY 21-22 surplus is the largest in state history

🏆 WINS OF THE DAY 🏆
Bad azz governor.
In 2004 Florida experienced four or five hurricanes in a matter of 8 weeks. Florida was kicked out of the national insurance pool.
Example, those who were carrying Nationwide insurance were contacted with a letter saying while their are no changes, we will now be Nationwide of Florida as we have been removed from the national insurance pool.
Florida was left to figure it out on their own. Creating programs to shore up homes strengthen rooftops etc.
10 years later Florida learned they are only using 25% of FEMA dollars sent into the federal program! You see areas where the Ohio River floods and the Mississippi valley every year, they use most of the flood dollars. I remember Governor Rick Scott saying 'perhaps we should have our own flood insurance in Florida?'
This shows you governors and presidents can do the right thing and make it all work.
