The governor announced Florida is about to have a surplus
but before we throw him and the republican dominated legislature a parade lets
examine how this happened.
So Florida as the economy starts to look up, instead
of demonizing the president and the state’s teachers how about a tip of the hat
and a realization that maybe some of you don’t know what you think you know.
First the Federal Government came through with the stimulus
to the tune of four billion dollars a year for a couple years. This stopped us
from going into the abyss but didn’t get us over the hump. No that took the
state taking three percent of all teachers and other government workers
salaries. They said it was for us to
pay for our pensions but funny enough the money they took went into the general
fund not the pension fund. How’s that for laughs.
