But Red Lobster and Target and Wal-Mart and all the other businesses who evaluated the risk and decided to open in The Villages did not ask us to contribute money so they could open their business. We didn't have to give money to buy the tables and salt & pepper shakers at Red Lobster or the shelves and shopping carts at Target and Wal-Mart.
IMO, that's the big difference.

That's correct and if this was some sort of tax I'd be up in arms. But we can educate ourselves and make up our own mind. So this discussion has value.
