That is because you have chosen not to look. Should you choose otherwise in the future, you might catch a glimpse or two of what most other people notice (whether they support what they notice or are against it are two different things).

It is a huge part of Sumter County which was at one time a place with low employment and low income. A rising tide lifts all ships.

A huge part of Sumter County was farmland, and wild hogs. Low employment because most people worked on their family's farm and were therefore not considered employees. Low income, because - family farm - no pay. The Villages bought out the farms, displaced the families, and razed all that farmland to develop homes for seniors - most of whom don't get a paycheck either because they're retired.

They have a half brother who lives in my Village and we have met him once briefly at a party. He is not involved in the business but was once involved in the golf courses I believe.

Yes, and I like chocolate ice cream, which I know for a fact that at least one member of the Morse Family also likes. It has nothing to do with the topic but hey - if it's good for you, it's good for me.

I do not like the POA. I think there are other things going on and I don't like to think about them. I hope all the political action folks calm down soon and see that if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Yes, because in your world (as seen in the first paragraph of your post) - if you don't see it or think about it, it can't possibly exist.
I get that you don't like unpleasant things Gracie. I get that. I appreciate it. But not liking unpleasant things doesn't mean unpleasant things can't possibly exist if you choose to not pay attention to them.
