“He needs to come back to Florida and fix the mess we have here...Folks are leaving because on Ins rates, Taxes and the cost of EVERYTHING!”

I thought there was a huge net migration into Florida.

Are you telling us otherwise when you say “folks are leaving”?

And your inference that Florida is a high tax state compared to other states . . . I don’t know what to make of that.

Inflation in Florida? Yes, bunches caused by uncontrolled printing of trillions of dollars per year in Washington. And by home prices bid up due to net migration into Florida, something you deny.

“Florida is a high tax state compared to other states”

The property tax rate may be lower, but higher housing pricing cancels that out for many newcomers.

$300,000x2% = $6,000

($450,000-$50,000 homestead exemption)x1.5% = $6,000

As prices rise in many Northern areas, Florida is becoming competitive again when it comes to property tax.
