Yep. Florida is a “tourist state” where floridians are forced to live like tourists. Special tourist taxes on hotels and for “roads” cuz it’s needed for the tourist “infrastructure.” “ politicians are constantly telling us we NEED THE TOURIST DOLLARS! Why? So we can build more roads leading to Mickey World? I’ve lived and worked in the state for 50 years and tourism hasn’t put a dime in my pocket.

I got you! Try to get in Fort DeSoto campground! As a Floridian, you have to make reservations a year in advance in order to get a few days camping. I wrote a letter to Charlie Crist way back when he was Governor about Floridians money being just as good as the northerners and he did reply. He said basically to suck it up buttercup. Lol.
