Just heard on the news that Charlie Crist says if Floridians don't start spending then Florida is going to be in a Recession. How the hell do we spend, when we can barely live Charlie? Why don't you insist on a raise for everyone... $6.67 is barely a wage.

Part of the problem, as well, is lack of tourists. With the country on a squeeze, Disney is not an option for most people right now. Isn't it funny in 2005 when they had a surplus of funds and couldn't figure out what to do with the money. How the times have changed with 35% of homes sitting empty and Disney looking like a ghost town. Too, bad the city councils re-zoned their family style beaches to make way for the mega-plex condos that are sitting like open lots waiting for rich people to buy into their million dollar properties.
