In defending the POA and pointing out that the Developer has, from time-to-time, done some things, that, charitably put, are questionable, you are wasting your time. You are interfering with the Developerphiles' dream that everything in The Villages is absolutely perfect, that the Developer is totally altruistic, and that the Developer would never do anything that enriches himself at the expense of the residents. According to their view, we should all kick back, turn off our brains, play golf, and trust the Developer. Heck, after all, it's fun here and we are retired.

The Developerphiles will now reply to your post with a personal attack--accusing you of being negative and anti-Developer. They will not, however, present any facts to support their accusations. Presenting facts and a rational argument, as you did, takes time and effort--and, even worse, thought.
I find this so common on TOTV, unless you fall into the "developerphobics rational", (since you've decided to skip civility), there is an attempt to dismiss logical arguments. Not working for me, Avogado, I've already stated there is a place for the POA. It serves a certain population in The Villages but I didn't know following their philosophy was mandatory.

I found your name calling and post to be most thoughtless, too bad; a good discussion is far more desirable.
