No, Yulees railroad was largely built on the full faith and credit of the states Internal Improvement Board (which, coincidentally, Yulee helped create as a state senator). Possessed of more than half a million acres of public property to dispose of as it saw fit, the land bureaucracy that Yulee birthed literally paved the way for progress in the Sunshine State. The tea party-besotted politicians who run Tallahassee today might call that sort of thing Obama-style socialism, if they werent so busy handing out tax breaks and cash assistance to corporations in return for the promise of jobs-jobs-jobs.
