That seems to be a favorite refrain around here, when folks disagree. It might come as a huge shock to you, but some people opt to live in a place that may not be perfect, but it offers some things they find of value. Some folks choose to live Russia, Libya or even Bangladesh, even though life might not be perfect and government may not always have the residents' best interests in mind.

But of course an uninformed opinion always assumes the worst.
When I took office as the first resident elected supervisor in CDD10 I had only a smattering of knowledge of what I was getting into and was extremely skeptical of the actions of the board.

I see. So it was ok for you to be skeptical, but anyone else who's skeptical, is slanted and uninformed?

If you want to try to smear and spread distrust about the actions of individuals, my experience has taught me that these, in your words, hand-picked Supervisors, are in fact the wrong target.

Ahhh ... only the Developer's "hand-picked supervisors" are trustworthy and only you have the right to be skeptical?
The $40,000,000 the Developer stole, that was approved by the trustworthy supervisors, was merely an over-sight?
& the $350,000,000 in tax free bonds, the IRS says were improperly issued, was just an unfortunate blip?
I think I have it straight now. It all makes perfect sense.
