Maybe it's me but why would anyone think they can have something without having to pay for it. I realize there are people who steal, and I like the idea of paying for this priviledge.
This issue to me is, that some people want access, without having to pay the toll fee.
Either way, I see Mr. Morse having total control, unless he relinquishes his rights, and gives into the pressure brought to bear, by these acrimonious people. Civil liberties angle, is bogus. IMHO.
Like me or don't like me, I stand by what I say.

Maybe I'm missing something.......but those "highways" that "run through The Villages" such as where Red Lobster, I.H.O.P., etc. are located, are PUBLIC ROADS........and those businesses are open to all the public, correct? So, as long as a person from "away" such as we were when visiting for over one month, and renting, ditto........can drive our car to frequent all of these public businesses. So can those who live outside.
Ditto for the hospital and the Vets hospital. Both beautiful buildings by the way. Ditto for all the medical practices. They are not just for the residents of The Villages, correct?
I do "get" and understand the over congestion problem and the traffic issues..........we ourselves haven't lived in such a populated area since we left our childhood homes at age 20. Now 68, so that is a long long time ago. 100,000 souls is a bit daunting.......however, it was laid out so well, it didn't feel that HUGE. Hearing the "stories" about the traffic and the bad drivers is also a bit scary, to say the least.
As for someone else posting a snide remark about not having an "investment" in TV, we soon will. We've owned our share of homes over our lifetime.........we don't consider everything an investment...simply a place to nurture our children, our loved ones and create a "home".
Actually, I've never thought of our house as an investment. Maybe someone who has not owned as many homes as we have might, but life is short, and that "investment" will be left to others........not sure of the facts, but with all the homes and resale homes, people must be exiting TV as fast a they are clamoring to arrive............not sure, but could be. This is why we do the research.........to find out why.
We found The Villages to be a very attractive and well thought out 55+ community; we were truly impressed with its beauty and the fact that it has so many "services" for all.........
