Is Florida really that bad?

I just came across this while talking to friends at work who used to live in Florida: https://twitter.com/_floridaman

These are real news stories

Ahh Florida, the place where junkies go for a year long binge and old people go to die. It also has Micky Mouse; see, fun for the whole family.

Florida... where the elderly meet the people who never wanted to try.

Seriously though, my cousin moved to Florida a few years back and came back a shell of his former self. Heavily addicted to prescription meds and his whole life now revolves around doctors and pharmacies. It's sad. Definitely NOT saying that is the norm but from my small sample size, it's a poor showing for Florida (and entirely his own fault).

Floridians, when you come up the NJ/NY please stay the fuck out of the left lane if you plan on going 65 in a 65.

I was watching a marathon of american greed a couple months ago and pretty much 99% of the episodes took place in FL.

Yet having lived here most of my life I can't come up with a sweet ponzi scheme for the life of me!
