@grimaffiliations3671 your claim of ignorance of the people who want to live in Florida is vastly overshadowed by the hundreds of thousands fleeing Illinois, California and New York to live in Florida and Texas.
First if Florida wants to have a better identity that residents can take pride in we need a better flag. People in Texas are waiving the Texan flag because it's more than just the state seal on a piece of fabric. Second I'm not sure what Nick and Jeb were talking about when they said it looked like libertarians were going to take over the Republican party. Unless your name was Ron Paul there is no Republican in Congress losing sleep over the national deficit during George w Bush's administration. Third, as someone put used to live in Miami I disagree with the claim that Miami-Dade county is good at removing the potholes. Fourth, I am not sure why Nick didn't talk about the second amendment with Jeb Bush. Jeff changed Florida from may issue state to a shale issue state, CCW used to only work county by couny. Jeb also spearheaded the effort to get 38 states to all recognize each other's CCWs.
There's some truth to that. As a business owner and high earner Governance actually is great, I hate the heat and would have never moved here otherwise.
"Show me the books" and then diverts to news bias, which i agree with, but don't pretend that books have not been moved out of schools without true merrit.
Thanks for the humor. An entire interview of Jeb Bush talking about Florida. Make a circle with your index finger and thumb, then move your lips to the circle and blow, hard.
Jeb Bush is a man of admirable character who would have made a great president. It's tragic that he never got the opportunity. I grew up in Florida and found this interview quite inspiring.
Yes, more dialog. Maybe the future will bring some magic technology that will distill an interview like this down to a colorful emoji that the 20 people I forward this to will actually consume. But I learned a lot.
Gov. Bush sincerely shears his visions, wisdoms, governing experiences and efforts during this critical time. I guess when we are happy together, working together for getting things done quickly together. When we are unhappy together, don’t forget other’s’ efforts of accomplishments also, by changing mistakes sincerely together quickly. I guess Gov. Bush means that way. We are all Americans together to live in our country America’s greatness peacefully together maybe the happiness, brightness as govern bylaws afterwards together through learning together and quickly peacefully. I went to Florida before. Very beautiful, nice also saw many alligators in others’ backyard. However, without State taxes and easier to do business as any small businesses, maybe very attractive to Americans. I guess this is why many Californians have moved to there. I guess whatever we do, make sure leaving our hearts in the right place always for liberty 🗽 of the freedoms, entrepreneurship spirit and equality of the opportunities principles together, cherish accomplishments together and change mistakes quickly together, bring America’s principles and recognitions to govern by America’s own established Constitution laws together to preserve, protect and defend America’s Capitalism systems of freedoms, entrepreneurship spirit and equality of the opportunities society together by smaller Government, fair trade, alliances together as confidence of America’s principles for America’s future greatness together as one united nation America’s greatness, strength and Americans’ happiness altogether. If helping foreign countries, but left Americans unhappy, harder to convince America 🇺🇸 is a country of American peoples. After America’s severe debts owing returned and Americans live happier by more stable life, then help others more maybe easier. If Americans are splitting, America’s strength will be less obviously. I guess the Gov. Bush reminds Americans of all to reunite together peacefully again, focus on changing mistakes together by getting things done quickly together and govern bylaws quickly afterwards together as one united nation America’s greatness by America’s principles and recognitions together again. Although he is humble leadership, but his strength to continue America’s accomplishments and change mistakes kind logic is correct, because a splitting country is unstable nation. Change mistakes and get things done quickly and govern bylaws quickly afterwards together are stabilizing America’s greatness quickly and peacefully by getting things done quickly. That makes me recall that President Bush 41 said bring our greater hearts to solve great problems together. President Reagan said going toward shining hill by togetherness. I guess that means America is America and America’s greatness by America’s principles. Let’s reunite together again gracefully together during this critical time and focusing on getting things done quickly together and govern bylaws afterwards together quickly again. So we will be an united nation America together peacefully to change mistakes and getting things done quickly together and govern bylaws afterwards together all being able to accomplish quickly. This is America, there is nothing America 🇺🇸 can’t believe and accomplish by America’s greatness and strength, principles and efforts, togetherness By visions, wisdoms and efforts. Let’s pray together.
I guess you really dislike Jeb. Ok, but why unsubscribe because a person you dislike is getting interviewed? Can't stand to listen to people who is not part of your little filter bubble?
Lol, you can hear the sellout in his choice of words. He made sure to hit all the buzz words. Dude loves "progressive" values and "diversity". People don't naturally talk about these things without a political purpose. He isn't being asked about the buzz words but he works them into all his answers. Sure, he may have some technically libertarian values, but they're just a mask so he can sell you out. Hell, most libertarians sell themselves out with their economic policy. Unabashed free trade with everyone just lowers the value of your labor to that of the country with the lowest standard of living. Sure, your pay might not go down, but it sure as hell will stop keeping up with inflation, especially if you also have an immigration maximization policy. Though, I won't deny that immigration, these days, is used as a labor tool to make up for the drop in birth rates in the west. There's a whole mess of economic issues going on in every direction and it's such a jumbled mess, any politician could easily point to anything else to blame but whatever one aspect they want to care about. It's not free trade, it's immigration, it's not immigration, it's regulation, it's not regulation, it's companies being cheap, it's not companies being cheap, it's the government letting companies outsource our jobs, etc etc etc. The US is a mess with all this. Looking forward to Argentina's new president's run, that'll be interesting, since he wants to cut off the beaurocracy, cut trade with China, cut off their central bank, etc (though relying on the US central bank as he intends to sounds like a sellout move, literally taking on USD to buy favor with the US for trade, though not necessarily bad from where they're at. I'd personally go with a privacy crypto coin or just a decentralized or gold-backed currency from their treasury)
I feel both left and right would be revamped with a better education system. Too many on both sides of the debate are lead by beliefs that a good understanding of economics, history and civics would alter.
That's hubris. Education means different things to different people, history is written by the winners, economics is subjective akin to religion and no body cares about civics
