Clearly, this is a problem.
That's a ridiculous analysis.

By your reasoning and math, everyone who goes "running" or "walking" on The Villages paths, should be given free running shoes and the cost could be amortized over the entire population. So folks could be wearing $200 running shoes and the cost would only cost about $10/resident.

Why not extend that to providing Golf Carts for everyone who wants one?
