Unemployment just ticked back up to 5%, even though they cut federal. Not exactly a "recovery" number, now is it? Why would it go back up after they decided to cut the Fed's unemployment everyone is saying people are milking? By cutting the federal, they'll suck 20% to 30% out of their already recession level economy (inferred through the national numbers on money being spent).
Then compare the state labor force participation since 2000, GDP from 2020, and regional quits. Like the rest of the country, people are just walking away from their jobs. Translation: those people won't get unemployment but they still are quitting in record-setting numbers....with record setting unemployment.
Think this through: if the economy is booming there...why can't those businesses raise rates to attract workers? Easy answer. There is no boom and no one, not even crybaby business owners, believe the big numbers are real (because in context, they aren't).
Edit: I'll say it again this will decisively cost DeSantis re-election by unleashing depressionary forces in the state. The hotels are STILL down -10% yoy in a place where tourism is 90% of everything.
