I too wish people would show/post the exact source when these things are posted so others could check it out for themselves; however, I suppose it is possible that some candidates could hold this opinion. The point is, ONE person, if elected, does not mean this is the majority view. If it is the view all hold, then (although sad for us "villagers") that's called Democracy ! ? It's the way things work (or SHOULD work), in our republic ! Don't jump on ME ! I am NOT saying I do NOT want the money flow to The V's entertainment budget any longer. Only that the desire of the majority of the people in the county but outside The V's, may be quite different. The best argument to continue the flow of the money was made by a poster on here; that Villagers enjoy the entertainment, but the entire area benefits from the job opportunities (FAR FAR cry from when my children were very young and the only employment available here was in the citrus industry). When we would come down to Florida to visit family from our home "up north", we called passing through Sumter "no man's land", as we knew we had to fill the tank in Ocala as there was nothing for many miles !
