Florida Unemployment Rate tops 11%

September numbers are out and Florida's unemployment rate is 11 %. The Miami Herald has an article highlighting just one of the many stories of unecessary suffering brought about by the destructive policies of this administration. Big Government has an unemployment chart that should scare you, if you weren't scared already.

Our current economic troubles could be fixed. Taxes and regulations could be reduced. Small buinesses could be encouraged to start or expand. We could have leaders who understand the importance of maintaining and improving the standard of living for all Americans.

This doesn't need to happen. It is within our power to stop this downhill slide and restart our country's wealth creation engine upon which we and the rest of the world depend. It's time to demand that our candidates promote the creation of wealth and prosperity.
