Average Floridians are fed up with politicians who balance the budget on the backs of hard-working Floridians. Florida cannot afford more cuts to education, health care, economic infrastructure, and environmental protection while at the same time we give huge tax breaks to those who can afford to hire the most politically connected lobbyists.

Florida Gov. Rick Scott and his fellow GOP leaders in the legislature, President Haridopolos and Speaker Cannon, love to wax poetic about belt tightening, fiscal conservatism, and making due with less. However, when it comes to their own offices, Florida taxpayers are just a blank check.

  • When you elect a man like Rick Scott, proud owner of the largest fraud settlement in U.S. history, you simply must expect that he’s going to suck the life out of the working man and spread the wealth around at the top. It’s what he does. Always has, always will.

    The world is their playground.

    Welcome to the Republican party - leave your heart at the door!

  • @topthickproducer Obama never was PROACTIVE to allow gays in the military; has ALLOWED the Pentagon to increase spending in arms; did not push for SERIOUS wall street regulation; allowed the 2% to SAVE BILLIONS in taxes without putting a fight; has not made a dent into cleaning the environment; DOES NOT SUPPORT THE UNIONS!!: Allows Social Security Pilferage; Agrees with the GOP on budget cuts.
