No it's not the economy. It sounds more like the guy had impaired judgement(probably drugs) otherwise he would have not been driving wesbound on the eastbound lane. Besides if you are gonna still a car, you are not gonna steal a taxi, especially in Miami beach where you have plenty of choices.

That's still impaired judgement, with the high cost of medical insurance, who in their right mind would like to start their own business?

That's just a beginning of major crime hurricane which soon hits Miami VERY HARD. Remember the 80-ies. I think with the collapsed real-estate market,sagging economy,overcorrupt local officials ,thousands of unemployed hot-blooded latinos and neverending drug problem Miami will go through a huge wave of rising crime in the nearest prospective. Nuff said.

I agree with Mr. doomsayer here (sorry Mr. Testarockett).
I don't think it's ever going to be like the 80's, but I definitely think the rising unemployment is going to make things get worse. |
