But! Every now and then, there is that ONE who will take the time to fight back. Some have been successful and our community is better thanks to them.

That's how unions get started. Management (The Villages) screws over the workers (Village homeowners) until the Village homeowners have had enough and hire or put together a group of retired or active LAWYERS to fight against ABUSES by management (The Villages). If that RESISTANCE group could be very active and very strong, it could FIGHT on the side of the Village homeowners. There are numerically many MORE homeowners than the Villages family ownership. And those homeowners would have MORE TOTAL wealth than the Villages family ownership. The trick would be bringing these opposing power structures into relative BALANCE.
