The Sunshine State’s Governor Rick Scott is turning the heat up in the jobs battle between the states with his “One Way Ticket to Florida” public relations campaign. In a meeting that I had with him last week, Governor Scott made it clear… he is proudly and unabashedly taking a page out of Texas Governor Rick Perry’s “TexasWideOpenforBusiness.com” playbook. His goal is to lure employers away from less business-friendly states. So far, Scott has sent letters to business owners in high-tax states, including California, Colorado, Illinois, Minnesota, Massachusetts, New York, and my own home state of Missouri.
