2. there was a piece in the st pete times today about
his new corporation settling charges for another fraud. I have to wait to get the paper because I left it at work, but it appears that the settlement will be confidential and not available to us commoners.

What the hell would happen to you if you tried to bilk Medicaide out of $100.00 U.S. moneys? Would you be offered a "confidential agreement not to release the findings" of your trial? I hardly think so. Yet, we have these two guys that are buying the state offices, Scott and Greene, while the only person I see talking out loud about it is Howard Troxler of the St Pete Times.

Meanwhile those folks in Rhondaland are squeemish with delight about electing a known fraud that stole tax dollars from them.

I'm ready to bash my head into a seawall or something.

Oh, Greene is another fiasco in the making, gaud, what can I say?

3. Willfully ignorant. I have no pity for them.



The tragedy is, however, that they could take down the rest of us with them.

I just don't see how it's possible anyone with a functional brain can be so beguiled by such a blatant con man.

4. Lower taxes, less jobs - in a hurting state
This maggot (no apologies for the name-calling, he's worth it) has released his 7 point plan on a TV station near you (in FL).
Of course, the great Republican lie is first and foremost: less taxes - this time, property taxes - which are Florida's primary revenue tax source. To make this happen, HCA Rick will lay off state employees - probably teachers - Repubs hate teachers (no apologies for the inference either).
These people will immediately be added to the 15% or so umemployed already in FL.
For good measure, and to gain favor with the racist crowd - like the Villages for example, Scott will drug test welfare recipients. Nice. Then what? Will he deny benefits to these folks? What becomes of them? More umemployed broken people on our streets!

Regardless of his racist, deficit building, "less government" platform, Scott isn't running to make FL a better place. Scott is a freakin' billionaire already, mainly on the backs of health care workers that he abused and misused, not to mention the money he stole from the Feds. He's running because he sees a goldmine in the legislation he will enact - pure and simple. This is by far the worst wolf in sheeps clothing we have seen in this state in a long, long time.

5. I feel that Rick Scott is
a liar, a thief, and an unapologetic criminal, but instead of locking him up, he's getting into politics. It scares me that he is being allowed this close to power, and I am planning on volunteering for the campaign(obviously on our side).

6. spot on, that's Rick! here's to Alex getting tons of help & support. Rick Scott is the most
questionable candidate for major office in a long, long time. What a shameful history he brings, and he wants more power??? I don't think so!
