7. Poor Florida: Republicans, hurricanes, and sinkholes.

Not good by themselves, but all three put together must be a sheer nightmare for people down there.

The thing about sinkholes is, you can test and everything looks OK, then a short time later, it suddenly isn't and the ground gives way. I've heard it depends on how much rain they get, and the farmers who suck massive amounts of water out of the ground to irrigate their fields cause problems by doing that as well.

Sending good thoughts to progressives in Florida...the conservatives and tea baggers...eh, yer on yer own.
