3. Can you imagine what an equal rights law would do for Florida?
I have written to many state politicians, Democratic and Republican, to point out what would happen if a state with a good climate and beaches were to be amongst the first to pass comprehensive gay rights laws. I have pointed out the economics of it- gay people coming from all over the country and buying houses in our bargain priced market. I have pointed out that unlike many influxes, this one isn't likely to generate a demand for new school construction in outlying suburbs, and that it's likely to generate urban renewal. No response. None, other than the form letter thanking me for writing.
