As far as when is enough goes:

Amenity fees pay for rec centers, exec golf, flowers in common areas, community watch, and MMPs to name a few. Are the costs of maintaining rec enters and paying those workers going down? Are the prices of fertilizer and gasoline at an all time low? Are nursery prices lower?

Perhaps it will be enough when we get a real change that emphasizes fiscal responsibility rather than willy-nilly spending on pie in the sky projects.
What pie in the sky projects are you referring to?
