Need To Escape Socialism? Come To Florida!
A comparison between the Sunshine State and New York is extremely illustrative.
By Jeffrey Folks
The best example is the contrast between what now exists in New York and Florida. Whereas New York, especially New York City, is slipping into a socialist nightmare, Floridians are living the dream. In New York, freedom is constrained by high taxes and regulations, and things are only getting worse. In Florida, taxes are low and getting lower, and the sun almost always shines.
Florida voters understand the importance of limited government, and they have created a well governed, fiscally sound state. Eliminating the state income tax in its entirety was only the beginning: Now there is movement toward lowering property taxes or eliminating them altogether, which would benefit nearly everyone in the state.
