And this sentence, I quote; ""According to Bloomberg, the family’s wealth crossed the $3 billion mark in 2018, making Mark Morse, Jennifer Parr, and Tracy Mathews all billionaires."

My goodness, when is it shameful to be financially successful, doing a good thing, not breaking the law?
I have ALWAYS told my kids and grandkids to find a job that makes money legally and try to make a lot of it. I have told them that we would not pay for college studies in Art History or social work. We wanted to see a return on our investment and not on the kids living with us.
Agreed, LOL ! I do think you misread the intent of the statement about capitalism/developer's family/billions. I don't know the writer, but I don't think the point they wished to make was "anti-capitalism", I think what they wanted to convey is the owners of all of this private community, like any successful business, "could" if they wished, invest some of that into their "business". Again, can't read the intent of others, but I think that is what they wanted to convey; not condemn capitalism. Just a guess.
