the middle class, the lower class. even this morning i saw an article that shows only 8% of broward county can afford to purchase a home. we are seeing rent increases across the entire state of 60% in some areas, and as governor he s not even talking about that. not showing any compassion, empathy or plans of how to fix economy of our state. people are suffering here. i hear these stories all across our state neil: you ve got a boom going on, right, commissioner? you ve got a boom and, obviously, with a housing boom, prices go up. i definitely see your point. but, i mean, for a lot of people looking at this, people of less high tax states, florida s become an attractive mecca. hearing language out of you and wondering whether you would reverse that and harm that. no. there s an opportunity to balance it. what s happened is, yes, people have come into our state. the top percentage people are doing just fine. it has pushed down the rest of the market.
