No money for food safety inspections in Florida?

I was recently at a day care center doing some research. The director pointed out that one of the rooms was unavailable for the summer because they are required by law to have an emergency exit, which the room was lacking due to recent renovations.

I thought that made perfect sense, especially with such a vulnerable population in the facility.

Another thing that makes sense is ensuring the food at the facility is just as safe as the building, which Florida seems to disagree with.

“The state of Florida has eliminated food safety inspections at hospitals, day care centers and nursing homes because of budget cuts.”

Maybe the state should borrow some money from one of their basketball teams who apparently have a few extra million to offer LeBron James, Chris Bosh and Dwayne Wade.
