Praying for Republican victory | Main | For Crist, a most un-conventional speech »
You will be glad to know that our Legislature is coming back this week to keep working on that property tax thing.
The key question is: Who will win, the House or the Senate?
Ha! Just kidding.
The key question is what the tax laws ought to say. Nobody outside of Tallahassee cares which side "wins." Hope they remember that. (Read the rest of Howard Troxler's column here.)

It looks like the public will lose because it looks like the whiney little babies in the Senate are going to take their marbles and go home just because the House won't play by the imaginary rules that the Senate wants to play by. Woo hoo, little baby Senators, stomp your feet, cry, and storm out of the room.

Funny how the roles are now reversed. It's now the House trying to be inclusive and deliberative, while the Senate just expects to do whatever leadership wants.

No, 12:37, none of this is funny.
Those who are in power (Rubio, Pruitt, Crist) can blame each other and even try to blame the Democrats if they want, but they are in charge. The problem could have been fixed before now.
I don't care if the House or Senate wins, but I know who I will blame (Rubion, Pruitt, Crist and all the Republicans in power) if the government cannot provide meaningful relief that will pass in January.

Everyone knows Marco Rubio doesn't tell the truth.

It doesn't matter - it is all smoke and mirrors. Crist and Rubio couldn't care less about the average worker in this state, they' too concerned about what they can be elected to next. Pruitt just doesn't care. And members just vote for whatever their Party Bosses tell them.
Workers can't afford to work in this state - salaries are too low, taxes too high, insurance too expensive - what part of this is too complicated for these idiots to understand?
