The Daily Sun has constantly described the system as some kind of Marcus Welby, altruistic effort to make The Villages "Florida's Healthiest Home Town"-- rather than accurately describing the System for what it is: another Developer for-profit business...
...right, part of the dishonesty alluded to in my post. Why lie when you can tell the truth? There's no shame in a for-profit business.

The Marcus Welby stuff couldn't have been more condescending IMO.
