    If more than half the state doesn't like him, how'd he get Govener!?

    With Rick Scotts corrupt past and his proven corrupt present, the only reason he is doing this is to obtain the kick backs associated with it. The only reason he is governor is for his own personal gain. He has no interest in helping Florida. If Florida had the ability to remove him from office you would find that the majority of the people in Florida would vote to do so. In the interim, we all need to make sure we don't do any business with Solantic Urgent Care Centers. Doing so only puts more money in his pockets. Hopefully Florida can hold it together until this moron is out of office.

    Guess what. I live in FL and I pay federal taxes. Perhaps I am In the minority in this regard. Yes, I admit that I work for a living. Drug testing welfare recipients is good policy. Those that are addicted can move out of the state to avoid testing. When they do, crime will go down and we will have fewer inmates and thus fewer $100,000 per year jail guards! As far as testing state workers goes, I work in the private sector and I am subjected to random drug testing. Most companies hav some sort of policy like this. Why should public service employees be exempt? If anything they should b held to a higher standard. They work for us. I don't want drug addicts working for me.

    The authors arguments as to why this is bad policy are absurd and out of touch with reality in this day and age.
