Florida Unemployment System

Is becoming a big crisis down here. Most people in Central Florida make very little money, so work two jobs to pay their bills. Many have filed for unemployment over a month ago and have not received a check. Most Disney workers can barely make ends meet during the best of times, so there’s no way they have a rainy day fund to cover this extended period until the unemployment system catches up. Things might get a little dicey down here, crime-wise. DeSantis political career will go down the tubes if he doesn’t start to show some urgency in getting these people their unemployment. Some insiders are saying it may take at least 7 weeks to work through the backlog.

How does this help the people that lost their jobs?   They aren't coming back.  

WTF you talking about, a ton of them will, when those restaurants and bars open up, boom - employment, when the hair places open, more jobs. Yea, with each passing day the damage gets worse, that's why you do it as soon as you can.

Some of these people have been paying into the system 20, 30 years. The one time they need it and it fails them. Terrible preparedness on DeSantis’ part. And he’s handling it rather nonchalantly.

 

I believe Disney offers a 401K match up to a certain percentage...The Cares Act might be the fastest way to get cash for those employees if you know anyone in that circle.   Terrible situation regardless.

Dumb Alfie will take exception to your criticism of Trump Jr.

Miami Beach Police responded to the hotel room of former Tallahasee Mayor Andrew Gillum, who ran for governor in 2018, at the Mondrian South Beach on March 13.

Police released some images of the room to 7News following a public records request. Drugs, tattered and soiled bed sheets, pills, pillows and other garments and electronic medical devices on the floor strewn about near baggies of white powder could be seen inside of the room.

 

Methamphetamine was among the drugs that were found in the room, police said.

According to the incident report, Gillum and another man were in need of emergency services on that night.

Rick Scott is to blame for most of this mess. Nate Monroe had an excellent article about it in the FTU

Will check it out. As a matter of fact, the way DeSantis is so nonchalantly handling this reminded me of how Scott just ignored the Sun Pass scandal. Both just pretended the problems didn’t exist.
