Should be interesting to see their reaction when entire neighborhoods of the Villages end up abandoned when homeowners try to sell, or die, or get put into assisted living, and no one can afford to buy the homes.

Thousands of people move here /because/ they are able to retire with a combination of pension and social security, and don't have to worry that their higher income forces them to pay $2000/month for their insurance premium.

Those people will not be able to move here, if they no longer have social security or medicare, and no expectation that they'll ever have it in the future.
