<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;">Governor Scott wants to strengthen the economy of Florida the old fashioned way where you attract businesses by offering a low cost business environment.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He says they need to spend money on port improvements in order to step up industrial trade with South America.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He does not believe that spending money on an unnecessary train is the way to create jobs and build the economy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></span></p> <p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;"> <o:p></o:p></span></span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;">I doubt that Florida could have raised their portion of the money for the Tampa-Orlando HSR line.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>On top of that, there would probably be an operating deficit bleeding the state forever.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>News reporters recently rode a bus and the Amtrak train from Tampa to Orlando.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Both were only slightly slower than the planned HSR schedule, and the fares were a lot cheaper than the planned HSR fare.</span></span></span></p>
