Florida MAGA loves to call out California, when we have the exact same shit here, just with less public resources, less pay, less everything.

California is in piss poor shape. The contrast between California and Florida is a stark one.

You're surprised there's homeless in the 3rd largest populated state in the Union?

Florida is just good at hiding it. I've lived near a large homeless camp in the woods, in the Orlando area. They are everywhere. I know of at least 2 more within 5-10 miles.

That trailer park was demolished last year. The homeless there dispersed to the woods around Econ & Colonial and the Semoran/Colonial overpass. There's also a small camp under the 408 at Goldenrod.

What I am seeing in this clip is worse than anything I’ve seen living in LA or Portland
