Florida's Growth and Livability

Florida has become the fastest-growing state in the country and a popular destination for people wanting to move, live, and work there. Its growth can be attributed to its relatively lower problems compared to other states, such as better infrastructure, fewer potholes, and a comparatively functioning road system. The state's tax code, smaller government, and hands-off approach in micromanaging people's lives have created an environment that fosters economic opportunity and attracts business investment. Governor Jeb Bush highlights the importance of maintaining limited government and investing in long-term infrastructure and natural system preservation to sustain Florida's growth effectively.
