Gov DeSantis do something about the homeowners insurance, flood insurance and collaborating lawyers who keep driving premiums sky high while reducing insurance coverage.
Car insurance also. It's three times as much than other states
Auto insurance too! Don't pay your insurance DON'T drive PERIOD! Most of my premium is for under/uninsured.
Right you want more people ? But we FLORIDIANS WE DONT
No but we xant prevent them so I'm glad we are doing something to keep cigestion down. or Road rage amd crime will go up
Im sure the native Americans didn’t want you either, stop being so selfish
Remember when they call him death santis. Everyone in florida was going to die from covid. We stayed open. Free as a bird. No one in my family lost their job or home. We thrived in relationship to other states. Celebrities flocked her. Politicians vacationed here. The wealthy are moving here. Corporations are relocating here. No state payroll tax. Beaches within an hour drive of every city. Florida rocks.
He knew it Was BS.
Your family is lucky. I lost my job, I had many people in the family pass away and when some of us got it, we have problems with our lungs and we cough as if we have lung cancer.
You are lucky sir/ma'am.
I am happy for you, but I still wish we could live a little longer.
@@keywestalert6329 did those that died take the vaccine?
@@MikeCoon-yi4gz not at 1st he closed down florida too.
@@craigson153until his critical thinking kicked in
We don’t want more people to Florida
Good then do something about the child trafficking. They stealing kids out here.
I can’t agree more. No more people here with different views and votes.
Obviously the school systems must be horrible.
You have a home there so why cant someone else?
Money controls there minds
How about everyone appreciate this governor. He’s not perfect but look at how these other liberal states are ran. We’re doing pretty good.
I am a truck driver and the drivers need more spots all over the state to sleep, we have more truck traffic in the state since we have more freight coming into the state !
how about home owners insurance? cost of energy going up?
Wow finally someone is mentioning the main problem with Florida. But none of those morons asked those questions.
Let government get involved in insurance, and it's going to cost you even more.
@@gsp49 i never said I wanted the government to get involved. I said your governor Desantimonious is the one approving the insurance hikes and energy. The government has nothing to do with state insurance. Florida didn't have that problem with the last 2 governors. So stop bootlicking this far lard governor. He should be removed from office. Trump does not like that scum!
Ice caps are melting, ocean water expands as it heats up, surface temps are fuel for storms. Why would an insurance company want to continue in Florida near the coast?
@@nateteator3901 heard that since the 70's 👍
WE ARE TIRED OF AGGRESSIVE DRIVERS
Slow drivers are the problem
You will have that in every state and every country. The government cannot control an individual. Even in countries with no traffic at all. Netherlands, they have aggressive drivers.
Stay out of the left lane and you will be fine.
Im tired of slow drivers in the fast lane!!
I’m tired of whining babies like you
These tolls suck. Gotta pay 900$ just for going to work for a year
No joke when I lived in Orlando my toll bill was over $100 a month. Now I’m in south Florida my toll bill is pretty much zero. Unless I go more south and I try to avoid that like the plague.
@Dohair879 I tried avoiding it but my route takes 15 minutes extra if I don't take the highway and I'm always late to get home after work 😅 I did not use up 900$ worth of road nor can I justify paying that much just for going back and forth to WORK! The economy uses me to stimulate itself instead of the other way around.
@@BabyMikeVenom exactly de Santis don’t give a damn about the working people he wants to make Florida a paradise for millionaires only he’s kicking medium and poor class out of llorosa
Florida could use a good rail system, not only for Floridians but visitors as well. it would cut down on traffic, also have you ever waited for a bus in the Florida heat it's terrible.
Brightline is expanding and seems to be profitable. Definitely leading the county in high speed rail with just a few stops so far 😂
Governor - please repeat the questions posed by the audience. Or, have give them access to a microphone so we can hear the question. Thank you.
So glad I’m in Polk with Sheriff Grady Judd.
He does everything for children and families. I understand that because he is young and has a family. But there are a lot of elderly natives that are completely ignored.
How are elderly ignored?
@@gsp49cost of living.
agreed, but most states or the country in general don't want or care about us. we are considered useless because we aren't a big part of the job world now and we don't have lots of extra dollars to feed the economy we live on budgets and I feel most states want the younger spenders and workers amd consider us a detriment or wasted money on their part for little gain. They'd all rather have us in retirement homes or run us out and put younger families who feed the economy more , to take over our houses. It's all business
Nope, they aren't all of those things he spoke about help old and young folks
Eliminate property tax for all over the age of 65!
Eliminate all Tax's!!
@@joenop3393and then I will figure Joe you're going to go out and fix the roads and the bridges and all the things that legitimate tax pays for
So anyone under 65 would carry the tax burden? For decades, social security is paying out more than it's receiving. Starting with Millennials, there's a beneficiary cut of 20-30%. As an example, John, who is 28 year old now, is paying a higher property tax (because seniors are exempted), and expected to receive less from SS than his father did. To make ends meet, John has little choice but to be on welfare programs (paid by other tax payers), or search for higher wages (which causes inflation rate higher) that he can stay afloat until he dies.
@@TH-yumeveryone that is 65 and Older has paid in enough taxes that has supported the lazy and the welfare recipient's..We deserve our exempt stasis!
@@TH-yumwell I thought the administration and the Demoncrats fixed that problem by opening up border and allowing a whole bunch of new taxpayers in? Oh wait that's right they get cell phones and food stamps and free rent. Definitely sounds like a Demoncrat scam to me 🤨
Insurance, property taxes still out of control in Florida
@@LivingInAnInverseReality exactly de Santis sucks !!! He wants to make Florida a resort for millionaires and kick the medium class and poor out of Florida
How about lowering insurance costs...home owners is outrageous!
We can’t afford living and we get too many drivers
Rafael you are one of those people who came to Florida.
Move out of Florida
@@Saltfly shut up
My area is being exploded with new communities and so many green was removed for that. We had this year the most dry year of 10 years. No trees no rain. That is not good for us.
I love ❤️ Governor Ron DeSantis and Sheriff Grady Judd!
I'm more concerned about high cost of home insurance relief. What you doing about that Ron???????
Rent is too high!
Try New York or New Jersey….
They can help by building homes that can withstand a hurricane.
@@MsJanetLouise exactly !! He doesn’t care about medium families he wants to make Florida a paradise for millionaires
YOU’RE ALLOWING THEM (our commissioners) TO KILL SARASOTA AND BRADENTON WITH OVERBUILDING!!! STOP APPROVING SO MANY HIGH-RISES AND BLOCK LENGTH BUILDINGS THAT ARE REPLACING GREEN SPACE!!!!
It is disgustingly over crowed now in just 5 years! Almost can’t see the skyline and water from Tamiami Trail any more
@@ikreate4u exactly he’s making Florida a paradise for millionaires he don’t care about the regular people is all about money money money
Birth control is the way
A great leader for us and the state
How about something to lower rent??
How about more public transportation??
Don’t allow everybody in the country to move here. We’re sick of it.
How about you piss off and stop being negative? Public transportation would cost nearly 10x more than this and lowering rent isn't really his job, Florida has lower rent than most of the country.
@@FireForEffect1533 You must live in an other state because the rent here is insanely high. Also. You’re very rude. F off buddy.
How would he tell people what to charge for rent? Sounds communist. We can't close the borders of Florida from the US, he needs to work on deportation and remove the one foot rule for Cubans
Tolls should be for tourists not locals trying to get to work
Great video however, in the future, please invest in two or three wireless Mics so we can hear the questions.
Stop inviting people here we are beyond full
You can’t halt migration. That’s not freedom. If you’re worried about ideologies, become a voice in your neighborhood that can help educate and help others assimilate.
@@balilifamily it's not their country to be free in!...
@@Jordanaudiocaraudio my bad.. I assumed you meant people from other states. But immigration is important to Florida as well. Just as long as it was done legally.
I spent over 30 years west of ATL. I moved to central Florida 7 years ago. Take it from me. MORE roads doesn't work and public transportation is a Joke. I think y'all need to try something different. 😎
WE NEED MORE POLICE
Commenting this on a TH-cam channel will not help. Have you voted? Do you know the name of your local commissioner? Do you do anything else to change your situation other than ALL CAPS commenting excessively on the internet?
I am not saying I disagree with your 13 comments, but Rafael, commenting will do nothing. Let's vote and do things that will actually help. Gather the community and speak at the local community center and state your concerns with facts. But concentrate on few things as to not dilute your speech.
Your heart May be in the right place, but Rafael do sonething. La fe sin obra es muerte.
Property taxes are way to high and it just keeps going up!
@@edgonow exactly and is gonna continue to go up I’m sick of it
@@rafealrafeal6716ahhh..but it may be the only thing slowing down the migration!
I love the no sales tax on raising kids, thats so smart ❤
WE SINGLE PEOPLE WANT TO BUY HOUSES TOO 300,000 is too expensive
Florida salaries are not competitive
With all your complaining about living in Florida, maybe you might want to consider moving? You don't have to pay $300,000 for a freaking house either - there are plenty houses available for much less. Sounds to me like you're looking for something to complain about, try moving to another state and see if you get any better than this. I doubt not.
$300k is not the biggest problem. The interest rate is. It makes that $300k into $600k or more. I agree florida pays very little.
They need to fix the home insurance issue, too much money! 😒
The cost of car insurance in the state of Florida is legalized crime. Especially for those us who have nearly spotless records! I'm a senior with an exemplary record. I even own my car and I'm still paying as much for car insurance each month as I do for my home owners policy!!! That said, please do not leave us this state until you're finished with your gubernatorial term. After that, I will support you as President. You may count on that.😁
We are all victims of statewide fraud, crimes, disaster claims. 59, clean record, '07 vehicle (no lien) $200+/mo. Been paying for auto insurance since 16 yrs old and god forbid you ever have to make a claim.
STOP THE HELP TO CUBANS
WE ARE TIRED OF SEEING EVT AND SECTION 8! GO TO PEOPLE WHO DONT DESERVE IT
Right, our own homeless and poor elderly need help.
They got $1500 a month SS retired get on an average $1000. Pure BS.
Where are you from? This is an interesting view, but I wonder where you are from. Your name is Rafael, are you spanish? Were you born in FL?
@@keywestalert6329I feel the same way, my grandfather was from Mexico and my father made us learn english (unlike cubans) and work to contribute to society not just take!
Some of you people are clowns. You wanna control the state and stop citizens from moving here like how does that make you any different than the typical tyrant
How about not charging money for the homestead exemptions to disabled veterans?
How about living within your means? If you cant afford the tax’s you cant afford the home.
I've been a Florida resident since 1980. I'm seriously impressed with the job you're doing for the state.
😎We to protect the Florida Wet Land Governor DeSantis please. 🌟🌟💕💕🌟💕🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟❤️
Shout out to Ron DeSantis for making Florida a better place to be and live
I'm thinking you have not lived here that long...
@@kurtthompson5517I’ve lived here my entire life and Desantis is the best Governor we’ve ever had, if you don’t like him move to California
Housing market needs to be looked into 😢
What about property insurance ?????? There’s no relief 😢
we are tired of aggressive drivers
TRAFFIC IS HIRRIBLE
WE NEED MORE POLICE
The police are lazy they need to actually work. 15-20 years ago police would pull you over if you weren't driving right and now i never see people getting tickets cops just ignore everything
How about fixing the Florida Unemployed website
How about you just go get a Fukin job
And raising the pathetic unemployment.
All we wanted was light rail
I will tell you this is a FACT THE MORE ASPHALT YOU PUT DOWN THE MORE HEAT IT GIVES OFF , THE MORE people DRIVE the hotter it gets . There needs to be a way to pave roads with heat absorbing materials.
Double maybe Triple Automobile Insurance Affordability crippling Seniors and people on fixed income lost there ability of transportation because they can't afford it 😮 HELP 🌞
😎 Governor DeSantis,sir Polk County is building a lot of HOA Community,but no roads being built, single lanes, come on.pot holes everywhere sir. Thanks for a great job🌟👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍🤩
how about fixing the homeowners crisis on insurance . How about cutting the utility cost your hand picked board approved for solar and ev stations. I want my vote back
DESANTIS YOU NEED TO HIRE AND PROMOTE MIRE POLICE.
TAMPA AND OJNELLAS COUNTY NEED MORE POLICE
It is disgustingly over crowed now in just 5 years! Almost can’t see the skyline and water from Tamiami Trail any more
HOA’s are out if control. Insurance is out of control. No more building luxury multi-million dollar high-rises near the shorelines! Locals and workers are being priced out.
Hey come focus up here in NW Florida because we’d love more people bringing more amenities ❤
Us truck drivers pay for it! Road use taxes and our bodies and truck and trailer repairs are overboard!
Please get trucks more safe places to rest and take our 34 hour breaks.
We love you Mr DeSantis!
What about workers working their life away to support the others who don’t work Zzz… how i can’t afford rent but make more ….
The best governor ever❤, this is his last rearm , what are we going to do, there isn’t anyone that could replace him .. we have the best… we’re spoiled… I’m thankful he is our governor, need him for Florida always…❤😂a great wife who is so wonderful for Florida..❤❤❤
WE DONT HAVE ENOUGH FLORIDA HIGHWAY PATROL.
We have too many.
How about making HWY 54 a split level Freeway, mostly heading West.?
Freeway up top and local level below. This could help congestion going to Clearwater/St Petersburg and Tarpon Springs. Instead iof I 75 and I 4 and I275.
How about raising the minimum wage.. the income doesn’t match the cost of living 😢
It doesn't anywhere
I've lived in Florida for 23 years, and I honestly don't notice much of a difference between DeSantis and previous governors. It all seems like smoke and mirrors. Unless the governor tackles an issue directly impacting your life, you might see some changes, whether good or bad. But in reality, I don't see any significant difference.
Agree and stats about # ppl relocating here predates him. Ppl are ignorant when they move here and many leave 👋 Come here and make it better or STAY OUT!
@@aquarianhealer Absolutely, and it's been this way for over 30 years. The trend hasn’t diminished because Florida was known as a cheaper alternative to California. DeSantis isn't as effective as he or his supporters claim, but perception can be powerful. People can drive around and think crime is down in Florida simply because they don't see it happening, but that was the reality even before DeSantis took office.
I think it's interesting, though, that native Floridians often don't realize how strict and numerous the laws and regulations are here. If you pull back the curtain, you'll see there's a ton of regulation-it's definitely not as free as advertised.
And no rent cap horrible
Can you tell people the left lane is the fast lane! People doing 30mph in the left lane are the biggest problem!
Supposed to be ticketed now for hanging in left lane but patrol is needed to enforce
Education for new drivers is needed.
What about the insurance problem ?
😎 Governor DeSantis, crack done gangs, more stiffer penalties and laws.
Why can’t DeSantis stay as governor for as ling as he is elected by the people?? He does a great job so we want him as governor until we see he is not aceptable anymore… Stay as Governor DeSantis, STAY!!
What is Rhonda Santos going to do something about the homeowners insurance situation in the state of Florida it's out of control me as a homeowner of 30 some years there's only made one claim in that 30-year time yet my insurance is tripled in the last year what are you going to do something about it Mr descente's
are you lefty soy
Now they have more projects going than there were people in 1823..
I agree with you there 100% my point was just pointing out that progress (as much as we hate it) is inevitable. I pray that those who are impacted in a negative way, will find a way to find jobs that enable us to continue to grow and thrive. People will never be completely replaced by automation. God Bless You!!
Yes are economy has grown by charging renters 2 or 3x’s the rent
What about the western panhandle? It seems US 29 here is under constant construction with no improvement and the I-10/Pine Forest interchange is a death trap with lots of blood spilled there. I am a fan of separating the panhandle with Florida because we get nothing but scraps and projects obsolete when they are finished. We need to be an independent state.
😎 Governor DeSantis, plus the HIA needs more Florida regulations please they have more authorities in the banks. Hey do what they want to take what they want accountable for anything. Please help regulate them there Power.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 You would be a great President sir I vote for you.👍👍🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
How many people can we support here . ?
We should have no property taxes, no car registration etc..
No is a little extreme. Money will come from your pocket one way or another. Higher homestead yes I can agree on that.
This isn't a 3rd world country we're civilized
We tried moving to Florida for my Va care and weather for my injuries but on my Va disability pay I couldn’t even afford a hotel at their monthly rates and veterans k9s are not allowed at most places with papers we survived 4 months before given up. We instead moved to Tennessee which is another fast growing state
We need more police and we are tired of everything being so expensive
Like upper bypasses to take down the congestion on your highways
Thank you Governor.
DeSantis is innovative, strong, and proactive. He's great!
Why not put some limits n growth? The wildlife is being crowded out as it is now. I live n a rural area and every direction I drive has new subdivision going up
Check out Redland, we're a non incorporated farming area in SW Miami-Dade county. They've made it so builders can't come in and build. So many homes per acreage ect... You can get involved with your local community rules/regulations ect... and do something! It's still we the people.
Birth control is the only way
Make Grady Judd put body cams on his PCSO
Just drove from Texas to Michigan and the worse roads were in Illinois and Nevada, Just saying….
you need to make it so someone making 50,000 can afford a efficiency in Florida
Some of the stuff is a easy fix like on 75 in Tampa by exit 265 you got all these people getting on 75 from the right lane that just want to get over to the left and keep traveling but right after the entrance is a exit everyone stays in the right lane to exit so it creates this huge bottleneck. Just make the entrance on the left side
Great job Governor and staff
Monitor How you use your vehicle **** Insurance ALREADY does that *** Show me a insurance company that DOES NOT ask HOW you use you Car to drive *** WELL Can anyone say I know 1.
all politicians are relieved from duty
Jacksonville and Clay county need help with their pot holes. I ruined 2 new tires this year.
Free Your People here in Florida COMPLETELY.
Hey Ron thanks for taking the job away from the tollbooth people and putting in pay by camera , what use to cost $1.50. Is now pay by mail at over $3.00 bucks , plus a stamp , jerk !
Get an epass or sunpass, there are no excuses not to have one. Toll workers are an inefficieny and a waste of state government funds
That’s progress. Don’t knock it. Many other jobs in the country have been automated so figure out a way to make a change because automation is where we have been heading. Your Fast food restaurants are doing the same eliminating the cashier jobs. That’s the reality.
@@mariabaker1216 it maybe progress but it’s not for the good of the people it’s on good for their pockets , not ours !
🙌🙏🙌
Yes it is a great and free state but something seriously needs to be done with auto insurance rates and homeowners insurance rates and significantly rise in property taxes
Going to take away of those New York drivers licenses(and all the native Florida ones too.)?
DE SANTIS CLISE THE BIRDER
And abandoned house or foreclosure have to be sold at any ship price for a person who can rebuild and pay unpaid bills
sir you are definitely my favorite governor
In 30 years many cities like miami and Port Charlotte will start to be under water , im all for ron destantiz but remember my words ...
We dont like New York. Too crowded.
Yey Polk County!
Orlando needs more public transportation. Itll be less of a burden on the tax payers.
Here in Fort Lauderdale everywhere you look is a homeless person
Florida has been over populated for years. Here in Ocala we are busting at the seams. We don’t have the infrastructure to handle the population that’s moving here. From what we understand is there are no plans to initiate the roads, schools etc…. But they like that money tho. Horse capital of the world. Not anymore.
