Florida Mass Exodus

Kool aid? Dude, look it up. The Florida house is VERY strongly republican, it’s not even close. I don’t think you have a clue what you are saying or something. Several races are contested yes, and it’s national news, but the none of the house seats are involved in that.

Then provide a link to your claim.

Gillum withdrew his concession of the Florida governors race.

Expect a mass exodus of businesses in Florida to Texas not if, but when the recount is finished showing the Democrats won the house and senate seats and they impose a state income tax. The courts have already ruled there isn’t enough evidence of election fraud to investigate. It’s the biggest reason all that $ was dropped into Bozo’s campaign in Texas, the Dems want state tax there also.

What businesses?

Disney World? The hotels and restaurants lining the Florida beaches?

“As the state’s No. 1 industry, tourism is crucial to Florida’s economy – generating 23 percent of the state’s sales tax revenue and employing more than one million Floridians. In 2011, tourism was responsible for welcoming 86.5 million visitors to Florida and generated $67.2 billion in direct economic impact.”

For every dollar spent on tourism marketing, VISIT FLORIDA generates $177 in tourism spending and $11 in new sales tax collections.
VISIT FLORIDA’s vision is to establish Florida as the No. 1 travel destination in the world.
Every 85 visitors supports one Florida job, which means a growing tourism industry equates to increasing employment and a stronger economy.”

Like the democrats are believable and trustworthy.

Just as much as the Republicans are, sad to say.

Our entire political system is corrupt…and we, the citizens, have let it become this way…

LOL. You think recounts happen in a left wing vacuum? There are republicans counting with them and looking over each others shoulders every step of the way like a den of thieves divvying up cash after a huge bank robbery.

As to your spending twenty two years protecting freedom, don’t expect to see any denigration of that here. Virtually everyone here appreciates that and there are a ■■■■ ton of veterans here as well, so don’t even bother with that line of attack.

The Democrats in Texas do not want a state income tax. Please stop making stuff up.

Not yet anyway.

See my twenty two years in uniform and being a United States citizen gives me the right to use that line of attack if I damn well please. If you don’t like it, don’t read it that’s your right, what isn’t your right is to speak for the veterans in Florida! They are plenty capable of doing that for themselves trust me.

Sorry, but your service isn’t a Get Out Of Facts Free card.

How am I speaking for anybody but myself? Huh, I’m not.

You really think the Florida constitution matters? The left doesn’t even obey the US Constitution unless they can use it to strong arm the right.

Oh the irony.

Wasting your time with that one.

Will there be a caravan of Floridians amassing on the Texas Border? Will Texas have to call out the National Guard to protect it’s southern border and with Louisiana and Arkansas? Will there be encampments in Louisiana and Arkansas to hold this horde of Floridians until Texas can case by case make sure they meet the qualifications of being a Texan?

And as Texans, aren’t you concerned with hordes potentially coming from two different directions. And how many illegal immigrant Cubans and drug dealers are going to be coming in this caravan from Florida. And how many Alabaman’s will they pick up along the way to Texas. Will there be street brawls in Texas with clashes between Texans yelling hook em horns and Alabamans yelling roll tide.

This could actually get worse than the real caravan that is still two months away! Texas can’t handle this can they?

Not to mention all the elderly, who will make a giant sucking sound in the social services they will need once they relocate.

Sorry.

I think you just click on the heart again.

SpadeMarlowe · 2018-12-05T22:09:12.123Z

What will happen to Floridians if they throw rocks and bottles at the police?
Yeah…I know.

Thanks…I did and it doesn’t work.
