Hello Michael,
Everywhere I go I hear Floridians crying out for freedom. Floridians are outraged, and fearful, about the overwhelming number of criminals migrating into the United States of America and the great State of Florida illegally.
Floridians know that there are serious inequities in Florida’s election laws and processes and that the 900,000 or more illegal residents living in Florida are either voting in Florida elections or will be voting in Florida elections very soon if we don’t stop the steal now. Floridians know that the woke agenda is a tool leveraged by globalists who are in the process of neutering America in an attempt to undermine our military preparedness and our pro-America, rule of law, patriotic culture thereby achieving their one world order agenda. Floridians know that the 900,000 criminals residing in Florida illegally are absorbing every category of goods and services including housing, cars, gasoline, groceries, sundries and clothing, thereby driving the cost and price of everything while household incomes lag behind the inflation rate. Illegal migrants into Florida place our citizens and our law enforcement officers at risk every day. Floridians know that America is a great nation because our culture is based on and reliant upon our Judeo-Christian foundation. The dilution of our population and our values resulting from the insertion of criminal migrants into the State of Florida effectively cancels the voice of naturally born Americans, and those who come to America legally, by injecting illegal migrants who do not share our values into American cities, counties and states.
The interests of the Florida families who built our state must supersede the interests of special interests and criminal migrants seeking entry into Florida. We must defend our borders, secure election integrity, end the woke agenda, fight against inflation and restore faith and Judeo-Christian values in our culture because failing to do so is an existential threat to America and to the freedoms Floridians are demanding. In order for the communist globalists to succeed they must secure Florida! Yes, we must Live Local and crush the forces that have stolen our freedom.
Individual responsibility is the founding principle of the concept that is America. Under the concept of America (individual responsibility) the government has no right to take money from one man and give it to another man. Yet, the order of business every day in Tallahassee is deciding who the beneficiary of taxpayer money will be. Special interests get richer by persuading legislators to distribute taxpayer money to the consumers of their products and services and by originating laws that force Floridians to buy their products. These practices exemplify the weaponization of government (woke agenda) and the routine practice of government choosing winners and losers. Legislative integrity and ethical practices must be established in Tallahassee.
I have long been perplexed by the public policy initiatives of the leadership of the trade association Florida REALTORS that celebrate double-digit appreciation of housing values and, at the same time, bemoan the pitiful affordability index of Florida’s housing market. The Live Local Act, passed into law in the 2023 legislative session and amended in the 2024 legislative session does exactly that. The Live Local Act subsidizes housing purchases in an undersupplied market, escalating the price of housing. The Live Local Act also utilizes taxpayer money to build “affordable housing” because our children and grandchildren can’t afford to rent or buy a house. Predatory legislation advanced by Florida REALTORS’ leadership, a special interest trade association that is more interested in politics than best practices, benefits from the overpriced housing market. Florida REALTORS leadership and all of the legislators that signed the Live Local Act into law intentionally fleece taxpayers by providing down payment assistance to home buyers who have no down payment while, at the same time, building affordable housing units with taxpayer money for windfall financial profits and political expediency. This is the epitome of the weaponization of government (woke agenda) against working families. The Live Local Act urbanizes the entire State of Florida. The Live Local Act is immoral. No man has the right to inflict harm on the defenseless. Working Florida families are defenseless against Florida REALTORS’ leadership and Tallahassee’s tyranny. Housing is a universally essential commodity. Every human being needs shelter. The homeless population is villainized while many well-intentioned homeless people (including veterans) die on Florida’s streets and in Florida’s woodlands. Florida REALTORS’ leadership doesn’t care. The Live Local Act literally prices housing out of the reach of median (half) household income Florida families. The Live Local Act builds apartment complexes with taxpayer money in order to mitigate the problem Florida REALTORS’ leadership, the real estate development community and Florida legislators created. The Live Local Act is shameful and should be criminal. The Live Local Act must be repealed.
