Guess we'll have to disagree that makes him "decent". I think it makes him nothing more than a "politician" in the worst sense of the word.

Just another example of how voting Republican can be dangerous for your health and potentially fatal for your healthcare!

SP, apparently the FBI would disagree with you about that. Several HCA executives were investigated and indicted, but Scott was never charged with a crime.

I’m not enamored of Scott, but will give him credit for bucking the GOP thugs on Medicaid expansion. Also for his support of wounded war vets in Florida and for working to increase teacher pay.

Those things strike me as “decent.”

Nice to see Scott come outta the political closet and get on the right side. He’s a bright, calculating bidnessman who knew all along that Medicaid expansion would be good for Florida’s poor and also for its hospitals, particularly the at-risk, rural facilities.

A sharp, gutsy fella who co-founded a national hospital chain that later merged with Hospital Corporation of America (HCA), Scott spent considerable time in Little Rock where HCA owned Doctors Hospital for years before selling out to St. Vincent.

Scott’s a decent guy (for a mega millionaire), although he resigned as CEO of Columbia-HCA after the chain got caught up in a Medicare billing scandal that cost the company almost $700 million.

The man’s personal wealth and personal “loans” to his campaign are the chief reasons Scott is governor of the Sunshine State today. Money talks. In politics as elsewhere. (Eat yer heart out, Michael Dale Huckabee.)

And for the love of Ceiling Cat, I cannot figure out why these guys are against something their party approved of back when RomneyCare was instituted in Massachusetts. And this healthcare program is designed on all the blueprints that the Republicans drew back up before the dark-skinned, Mooslim, Nazi, Socialist, Communist, Fascist (did I miss one?) Kenyan got elected.

Oh, snap. I just answered my own question.
