And on and on. To the locals, we (Villagers) are like a drug - you get hooked on the high of at least having a job, but can never get quite enough. So you hate them but still show up for your fix. I think some finally just said F-- it, I'm otta here - and good for them.

Interesting. Thirty years ago, Sumter County ranked as the poorest of 67 counties in Florida in all categories. Now it ranks between 14th and 29th depending on which metric you use. I wonder how upset "the locals" are about that?????
