Then razing multi million dollar homes to build ultra multi million dollar homes as Florida has generous tax breaks and exemptions on property. What do the locals do? They’re squeezed out and affordable housing is a joke. Homelessness, low paying jobs in this right to work state that thrives on tourists and snowbirds. Pretty much what’s happening in this video.
