And to think how much sway this place has in deciding our elections
It's weird because I don't remember this state being the butt of every joke when I was a kid. WTF happened to Florida in the past 20 years? It's like East Germany went full Tea Party.
http://www.floridatoday.com/article...106021/Our-Views-Culture-of-corruption-Jan-7-Federal corruption convictions alone topped 800 in Florida between 1988 and 2007, higher than any other state.
Wasn't Adam Corolla who used to have a segment on his show called Florida or Germany? He would read a fucked up story and then you had to guess if it happened in Florida or Germany.
^Yeah, I remember way back when Florida was just the state America went to die.
Now it's the state that America avoids so they don't.
It's in the news far too often, and never for good reasons.

Haters gonna hate.
Bay Meadows?
A lot of it has to do with the fact that a lot of our laws were originally written on the napkins of Manhattan bars and boardrooms. Florida was organized to be the state that wealthy Americans with skeletons in their closets could run to and protect/stash their riches (e.g. there was a reason why OJ ran here after losing his California civil suit). So there was a Wild West mentality from the beginning. A huge transient population that doesn't trust eachother bookended by a large Cuban and growing South American population in the south that doesn't trust government or law and a large redneck population in the north that doesn't trust government or law. It makes for quite a motley crew.
Not that there's any reason to trust government or law in Florida:
