I can't believe someone actually wants to start a war over this crap! Go ahead lead the charge, I'm right behind you!

No the bottom line is that a foreign power threatened to harm the people who chose to see a movie in our cities in this country.

I am sick and tired of blaming corporations and large businesses for everything wrong. Open your eyes and take a simple course in economics. We are strong because of our vibrant business community but any tax break given to them some of you act like it is treason. They employ millions of us and it isn't an easy job being the head of a large company, making decisions to keep the business running in the black. They get big bucks because their job warrants big bucks. I am sick of people who don't get the big picture and choose not to see how things work and I am sick of their class envy. People are paid for doing jobs that are hard and heavy and stressful and that potentially make money for the company and feed the people who work for it.

If we criticize the president on this forum, we are not alone. His approval rating is very low. But to be fair, no human seems to be able to please the fickle public and at the end of their terms in office, it seems all Presidents fall from grace.

You must remember that the majority of people who live in The Villages are traditional or moderate in their views. We represent a pretty pure segment of solvent, law abiding older people who are good old fashioned moral people.
