Florida Is The Most Corrupt State In The Country, According To Integrity Florida Study

We are the most corrupt state.

Thanks in part to corrupt politicians (mostly republicans) who run things, have zero values, etc

Shameful.

In a ranking of 1 to 50 (51 including DC), someone has to be first, and someone has to be last.

I agrree that the state is corrupt. However, in my county (Broward) there are plenty of Democrats involved in scandals.

Josephus Eggelletion, Jr.
Beverly Gallagher
Fitzroy Salesman

Are just a few that come to mind. I don't trust politicians from any party.

Check out Shelton vs. FL and how it pertains to mens rea. Corrupt and unconstitutional, only in FL.

It does not matter whether they are Democrat or Republican. POLITICIANS are mostly corrupt in general. I would take Florida politics over Chicago, New Orleans, Detroit, or California politics anyday.

Perhaps what we need in the US is an updated democracy somehow where politicians have less influence over our lives and people can vote directly instead of be "represented". Most politics is heavily colored by throwing money around so most politicians are financially naive at best, seems to have gotten worse over the years. I don't trust politicans, and while I will vote for some it is ever so reluctantly. We need some sort of updates to our system somewhere or somehow I think.

Lol. Let me know when we have as many governors as IL has had go to the slammer, or when we have an overgrown corrections industry with six figure cops like CA has. all that FL hatred seems to get in the way of facts for you
