Florida is Going the Way of California

California is in the drink financially, and next on the list is Florida. This is where the state will start to tax the citizens to death and raise tolls as a feeble attempt to turn it around. The bureaucrats have ruined this state in my opinion, and I see the same pattern occurring here as I saw when working in California. After being gone from Florida for ten years and returning, it is very disheartening. Florida citizens need to find out who voted to raise licensing fees and vote them out of office. Here is a little blurb about it found here:

Next Tuesday Floridians will be paying more for a driver’s license. Starting September 1st the price to renew a Florida license will go up from 20 to 48 bucks. Lawmakers voted to raise the fee to help fill a three billion dollars state budget hole. Governor Charlie Crist signed off on the deal. Crist cited semantics, saying at least it’s not a tax hike.

As usual, the news did not name the "lawmakers" who are responsible. So what happened to all of that Obama stimulus money we were promised?
