Everybody loves the fact that in the winter the restaurants are never crowded, in the summer we have wonderful customer service with everybody wearing masks.. you should look as the newspaper as another amenity, has somebody noted above it gives great coupons and comics and crossword puzzles all the rest as an Air Force pilot under attack would say is chaff. . I haven't found the news outlet whether it's TV radio or print that is not slanted one way or the other mostly to the other way when we first moved out here into Leesburg I was astounded to know that 55.8% of the population leaned exactly the same way I did from the town I moved from. I didn't worry about whether I would ever get the news again the way I read it as it was a thing called my brain which selected what I wanted to see read and understand. When you do read The villages newspaper you have a choice of believing anything they say although I will say that their writers of opinion and fact could have been the best advertising people on Madison avenue for slanting things the way they want you to tell about a 25% tax increase suddenly becomes needed and normal and nothing is going to change the fact that Sumter residents were taken for 50 million last year and will be taking for 50 million this year probably extra from the years before. All you have to do is Google the budgets and the taxes for Sumter and compare them to local counties near you. You can use your own brain to figure out whether or not your politicians are being efficient with your tax dollars, it does not matter who pays their salaries
