Our beloved emaciated,suffering from brain and soul nourishment , gov Rick Scott - once again advances his chances to be defeated in the next election
After 40 deaths, Rick Scott Fights to WEAKEN child safety bill "to save money"!
"The Department of Children and Families has had a rough couple of years. The guy Scott appointed to run it resigned in disgrace. (One of 17 record resignations under Scott, BTW). The agency was woefully mismanaged and is severely underfunded. In just the past few years hundreds of children have died preventable deaths due to failed background checks, no oversight, and poor social worker training.
Rick Scott responded by laying off HUNDREDS in of critical positions in the DCF. His budget also completely eviscerated children's welfare, even beyond what the teapublican FL Senate wanted.
Scott told critics that he believed in the "power of prayer and hope". So they don't need money"
Prayer and hope - The Repukes answer to everything, lots of prayer, some hope to keep you going.

(146,262 posts)Republicans apparently believe that Jesus said, "Suffer, little children." That's the only explanation I can think of for how they act and for the laws they make.
