Time magazine really hammers Florida
Man, Time magazine really hammered Florida in it's latest article.
"Is Florida the Sunset State?" Time magazine is revisiting Florida by writing another negatively accurate picture similar to the article over 30 years ago about of its classic Paradise Lost article. The article was from November 23, 1981 - Paradise Lost? It was the Time magazine cover that referred to the situation in Florida after the Mariel boatlift. Now there are a new host of topics and challenges to Florida.
- Water Crisis
- Mortgage Fraud
- Real Estate Meltdown
- Political Dysfunction
- Environmental Challenges
- Algae Polluted Beaches
- Declining Crops
- Failing Public Schools
- Massive Foreclosures
- Spiraling Insurance Rates
- State Budget Crisis
The article paints Florida in a most troubling light that will have far reaching impact on many.
Even The Miami Herald writers review the article:
