I happen to disagree with your statement The Villages is not about money now, The Villages HAS ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT MONEY.

The Villages of Lake-Sumter, Inc. (TVLSI) (Developer) isn't and never was as some residents believe, altrustic, a do gooder that provided shang gri la just for them. Its a business (period)

One poster used the term "cherry pick" and my thought to that term focused on how nice that TVLSI who owns and controls the Villages Health Care System can cherry pick its patients.

Some residents will reply with what's wrong with making a profit and my response is nothing of course that is the purpose of creating a for profit organization.

Given my occupation and the educational credentials associated with this occupation we had sworn to an ethical oath of business conduct. so that "to seek honor before profit is the surest means of finding profit with honor". Felix Nadar's statement succinctly reflected that oath. In planning and presenting a three day seminar for employees I devoted one 1/2 day to the discussion of ethical conduct and behavior in our industry.

My intent here is not to judge it is to only opine others can decide
