<p dir="auto">Florida Governor (and Trump wannabe) Ron DeSantis announced recently that the State would divert and spend general healthcare funds to purchase 100-million rapid tests for Florida Seniors - specifically, those in nursing homes and assisted living facilities.</p>
<p dir="auto">This is on-top-of the 500-million the Federal Gov't is set to procure for the general population.</p>
<p dir="auto">I get it - we need more tests! I just paid $100 ea for tests (that my insurance was SUPPOSED TO PAY FOR) right here in Fla!</p>
<p dir="auto">But 500-million for the country, and another 100-million tests SOLELY for the oldest and frailest in just Florida?</p>
<p dir="auto">IMHO, we're entering a phase where tests and vaccinations are being used to <em><strong>pander for votes</strong></em> - from BOTH SIDES!</p>
<p dir="auto">The CARES act already says COVID testing is supposed to be free - although, as my case illustrates, that law has either loopholes, or people exploiting the idea for huge sums of cash! (I have filed a complaint, for my case, with both my Insurance co, AND the Fla Insurance Commissioner - hopefully, if this was a scam, they'll get caught and lose their asses!)</p>
<p dir="auto">Still, a race to see who can "provide the most" as a way to pander for votes is sickening... and morally repugnant!</p>
<h1>A pox upon both their houses!</h1>

<p dir="auto">No, there are plenty of things I disagree with that aren't "Trumpist" (and BTW: That term simply means a policy or opinion that comes directly from Sir Loses a Lot, aka: Trump the Loser King)</p>
<p dir="auto">In this case, had you been here (in Florida), you would have known that early on in the pandemic, DeSantis was very much "follow the science" - until Trump started to defy the science.... DeSantis "saw the writing on the wall" (which was that the Republican base was going to follow Trump - to the ends of Hell, if that's where He wanted to take them!)</p>
<p dir="auto">And I'll say again, there are a LOT of things DeSantis does that I wholeheartedly AGREE with! I'll have no qualms voting for him (yes, Virginia, I live in Florida - he's MY Governor!) in November.... maybe even again in Nov, 2024! I'd damned sure prefer him over Sir Loses a Lot.</p>

<p dir="auto">Interesting - another site (the one that directed me to <strong>that site</strong> reported 100 million.... I propagated that error in mistake.. oops!</p>
<p dir="auto">Just goes to show how easily misinformation can spread! Thanks for the notice!</p>
<p dir="auto">I'm of 2-minds on DeSantis as Governor... some things make a lot of good sense... then he goes and does things like forbidding mask mandates at any level! And forbidding - even private companies - from having vaccine mandates...</p>
<p dir="auto">He lets his Trumpist politics interfere too much for my tastes, but he's a damned site better than any Democrat alternative I've seen (EVER!) LOL</p>
