Stick to the heart of the matter.
It appears that many are taking shots at the reporter, news media, etc. instead of focussing on the contents of the article. Whether or not the writer is "snarky" or not about The Villages CDD or Mr. Morse is not germane. What every resident should focus on is whether you are getting a fair shake or are being shaken. Of course we are all here by choice, just as we left our former homes by choice and we love the lifestyle of The Villages. However, if we are responsible enough to pay our individual taxes and debts then so should those who are in positions of influencing our lifestyle here. That means not taking unfair advantage of a more senior population you are betting on not to try to peel off the seemingly many layers of how The Villages is governed. When I attended the CDD orientation last summer, it was easy to understand why they suggest you attend more than once or twice. When my wife previously inquired as to how bonds and amenity fees are calculated and their history......she really couldn't get an answer short of double-talk from real estate people. That tends to cause one to raise red flags. I dare say that all these issues are complicated by design and they indeed do lead to job security for attorneys.
By the way, has anyone ever seen any in-depth articles about the IRS investigation in The Villages Daily Sun or on WVLG? I didn't think so. I wonder why?
