I don’t know, probably whatever Florida does that gives them an economy 4X the size of Connecticut with an unemployment rate 1.4% lower.

Oh yeah, Florida is of comparable population to CT. Let's compare economies! How about overall well being? Education? Let's compare those.

Oh…so with 21 million people they DO have a more diverse economy than gator hunting?

Go ahead and compare. I never said they were perfect. If you want to pull up some actual stats on education and “overall well being” then go ahead and do some fucking legwork.

Seeing as home insurance rates are sky high in Florida or in some cases just not even purchasable you can't afford to tax home owners out of the state. Florida is death by 1000 cuts the state.

I live in florida. It has become more expensive than CT. My homeowners insurance is insane. I have 5 different insurances on my house alone. The pay down here is awful. The housing prices are through the roof.

Florida is a cesspool. I dont need to go digging to know that CT bests Florida in just about every metric.
