At least "shouting down" with accurate information.

The Free State of Florida is thriving in so many ways....not just business applications:

-Leads the U.S. in domestic migration most years in # of people, 5th in % in 2022

https://www.thrillist.com/news/natio...move-to-report

-AAA Bond rating by Moody's & Standard & Poors

-#1 higher education rating by US News & World Report

-#9 rated for starting Teacher pay

-#5 for clean water & air (US News)

-Top 10 for racial diversity

-11th best in public pension funding

-10th best in Corp taxes

-No state or inheritance tax, or state income tax

-11th best for business climate says MSNBC

You can see why so many businesses are moving to FLA. FLA's detractors are green w/ envy. More people want to move to FLA than any other State:

I'm just thrilled that Sam Bankman Fried didn't set up FTX in Florida! Madoff was in Palm Beach 1/2 the year but he was largely seen as a NY scammer.

I'll take school results, over school funding any day. Higher teacher/ed pay doesn't equal better results.

The USA has been outspending most of Earth in ed spending, but keeps falling down the list in ed results.

Does anyone here even need me to post a link? I think not...common knowlege.

If I'm looking to move a biz to FLA, I'm not looking at school spending...just school results.

And this is from a person who moved a business here from out of state.

How many here have moved a biz here from elsewhere, & completed a new business application for FLA?

What were your decision criteria?

I have firsthand knowlege, unlike most others here, who don't have a clue.

And yet in another thread, you're warning people not to move to Florida because it pays peanuts.

That's as true as it gets... except I don't have a lawn, well kinda sorta, but I do have a pasture.

I expect after Ian this goes way up. More carpenters and other construction industry related workers starting their own LLCs in order to start their own businesses and get contractors licenses with the high demand for construction and repair work around here.
