"Blue Sky" refers to amenities that are promised by developers but that are never built. The amenities in TV were in place before we paid for anything. The Morses may be making a lot of money now, but they were the ones who risked everything in the early years to build their vision. I'm a retired urban planner and I know there is NO PLACE in the world with a golf-cart-accessible retirement city of this scale and with this quantity/quality of amenities. Without the Morse's creativity the place would not exist, no matter how much we were willing to pay.
We are not a bunch of stupid retirees getting ripped off; we know value when we see it.
