But none of this have anything to do with tax money subsidizing fun at the square. And people around here think others have an entitlement mentality.....
jbdlfan: I happen to agree with some of your talking points.
I am probably one of the few that voted against Sumter One primarily because it eliminated the checks and balances needed in government.
I abhor tourist traps believe the Town Squares are just that and so avoid them for the most part. I love to dance but won't dance in the squares.
I believe as respects the Entertaiment that it should be funded with usr fees. If you want to dance every night at the square knock yourself out but please don't ask for my hard earned money. My priorities don't including frequent dining and dancing.

I also don't ever use the rec centers, pools, etc. However I agreed to the amenitiy fees and so I will abide by my obligations.

finally there really are some very nice people who live in The Villages
