Finally! After years of reading the extreme viewpoints of your columnist Karen Rubin, I finally agree with her. Yes, Ron DeSantis’ Florida is the model for the USA. All her points are reasons why we need to go forward with this plan. To support this, let’s turn the clock back to arguably the best generation, the post WW2 generation.
What DeSantis spoke to mirrors that of 70 years ago. We had a country with faith-based family units, a tireless work ethic, pride in our country with trust in elected officials, educators and media. We need those values today and DeSantis has demonstrated this model works in Florida, so yes, why not the rest of the USA?
Her final jab was a comment about folks going to Florida to die. Yes, but before Floridians die, they lived a great life. On the other hand, we New Yorkers live in a zombie state. Empty, cold, and sucking the life blood out of its citizens. Which model do you prefer?
