This was insider trading at the top of the food chain... Rick Scott maneuvered the transfer of stock to his wife to hide his interest, then maneuvered the law to create a profit... this is the worst example of public service... He has misled the public from the beginning and said what had to said to get the ball rolling... to protect his 62 million dollar stake in the industry... corruption will use any lie it needs. "Florida had a testing program in 2011 that was halted by the courts not long after it was started. During its brief lifespan it had similarly poor results. Only 2.6 percent of those tested turned up positive for illicit substances. And since Florida reimbursed those who were clean for the cost of their tests, the state actually lost $45,780 because of the program. Florida is especially important because Gov. Rick Scott owned a $62 million stake in Soltanic Corp., a chain of urgent care centers that, among other things, specializes in confidential drug testing. He transferred the shares of the company to his wife in January of 2011 just three months before both mandating that state employees would be tested and signing the law for welfare testing into effect." salon/2013/08/29/gop’s_inane_money_eating_sham_drug_tests_for_welfare_a_huge_failure/singleton/
