Subject: Florida pensions funds invested with energy company that contracts with Iran
Message:
Let's get this straight: Florida law prevents visits to political watch-list countries (Cuba, Iran, etc.) even for academic reasons. Florida law prevents state investment with foreign companies that do business with terrorist-supporting companies. Florida pension funds are invested with Petrobras in Brazil who make ethanol, but Pretrobras has energy contracts with Iran?
"God Bless sweet Brazil" Governor Crist proclaims as he visits Brazil. At least he refused to meet with Petrobras officials, but who cares if they get the money!
Florida law is only for the regular folks. Jeb and Charlie do whatever they want...
