I love this place as everyone knows and sometimes I think that the discontent that some folks have here really doesn't reflect their negative feelings about the PLACE.

I think other reasons may be;

They are away from family and maybe new grandchildren that have been born since they moved here.

They are in some denial about aging or in some difficult financial situation due to the very bad economic situation right now and feel trapped.

They aren't used to NOT having a say in local government decisions. AND the CDD form of government is NOT democratic.

They are somewhat depressed as many seniors are due to chemical brain changes.

They do not like the conversative political atmosphere that is predominant here.

They are annoyed that the Morse family are so financially successful in these poor economic times. After all they did sell us some cheap land in the middle of Florida.

They have always been unhappy.

They think acting happy with everything is not realistic and responsible. Pointing out negatives is being a good citizen.

None of the above and they are going to tell us what it is.
