Rick Scott and his all-Republican state legislature-- Floridians, you asked for it; now you'll have to live with it for a while, perhaps a long while-- are all over the map, destroying public education, the state's economic future, the morale of state workers, and public healthcare. It may not be easy, but he's not going to lose out being named the worst governor in history to punks like Kasich, Walker and Snyder, let alone LePage.
Scott and Florida Republicans are currently trying to enact a sweeping Medicaid reform bill that would give HMOs and other private health care companies unprecedented control over the government health care program for the poor. Among the companies that stand to benefit from the bill is Solantic, a chain of urgent-care clinics aimed at providing emergency services to walk-in customers. The Florida governor founded Solantic in 2001, only a few years after he resigned as the CEO of hospital giant Columbia/HCA amid a massive Medicare fraud scandal. In January, he transferred his $62 million stake in Solantic to his wife, Ann Scott, a homemaker involved in various charitable organizations.
