Furthermore, if you have any concerns that the plaintiffs were motivated by anything other than protecting the rights of the Villagers, which at the time were being abused by the Developer, I can assure you that you are barking up the wrong tree.

My only concern about the settlement is that maybe the $43,000,000 might turn out not to be enough (if, for example we get a huge increase in the minimum wage or the IRS investigation turns out badly), but we will have to deal with that if and when a problem arises.
I read some of these posts where people attack the plaintiffs, and I just have to shake my head. They sacrificed several years of their lives to move the lawsuit ahead, a lawsuit that was brought unselfishly to benefit the residents of The Villages. We are so fortunate they worked in our behalf.
