Snidely – Good points about corporations passing on higher costs (such as taxes) to ordinary citizens. But Andy does want to raise taxes on FL corporations, and I bet hands-down he won’t stop with his first tax hike. This column by Andy, from the Fort Myers News-Press, Jan. 19-18:
“We can make tax scam work; increase Florida’s corporate tax”

Great idea, Andy. You want to “help” Florida just as you’ve “helped” Tallahassee over the past decade or so. You’ve also managed to “help” your own wallet quite a lot in the process, and made the FBI very curious about your activities. I hope your campaign has as much luck as Hillary’s, and unlike her, that you will be indicted.

Do not worry about corporations leaving Florida due to Andy’s higher tax. Corporations do not pay taxes.
That’s right they pass that on in the form of higher prices to Mike and Snidely and the rest of Florida’s good citizens. So Andy really wants to tax us which will put an unfair burden on the poorest mostly minorities in our state.

Of the CRA, what do we expect of a city led by a “mayor” that recently called the Trump Tax Cut a “scam” and has called for “higher corporate tax rates” for FL corporations. Yeah, there’s a great idea – let’s start driving evil corporations away from FL and punish those that remain! That will sure bring economic prosperity. Gosh, maybe Andy can make FL just like California: Profoundly broke with citizens and businesses fleeing. There’s a smart economic model. I wonder if Andy’s aware that Disney just decided to give 125,000 employees a $1,000 bonus, DIRECTLY as a result of the tax cut? I doubt Andy Gillum will get many votes from Disney employees or their families. Link to Disney story (Jan 23-18):

You know those evil FL corporations – always hoarding money and keeping their employees in poverty. I guess Andy feels FL will be a lot better off with fewer corporations and big businesses. After all, he’s sure managed to establish that firmly here in Tallahassee.

The CRA is dirty, just like any other part of COT officials’ culture of corruption. I hope the FL Legislature passes tough laws and regulations on CRA’s that they were considering a few months ago. But far more than that, I hope our “mayor” and a great majority of COT officials are sitting in a very uncomfortable and tense courtroom a few weeks or months from now, in front of tables stacked high with the prosecution’s evidence.
