This is one of the most ridiculous things I have heard. Snow birds will hardly be making an impact on the national supply chain of goods, anymore than year round residents. What happened to a nation sticking together and no man left behind! I am ashamed at the selfishness of this quote. I really hope there isn’t a day that those of us in The Villages will need help from some one outside that you pushed out. Good luck on your own.

And while we are at it, let's just label all hoarders with a big scarlet "H". *dripping with sarcasm*
Sheesh! More and more TV reminds me of that tv show about the dome. Bubble indeed!

Take it easy
Show some love. Sometimes people say things without thinking first.
I have snow bird friends and I hope they stay.
I love and miss them when they go and look Forward to there return.

WOW - really?

You DO realize many of the resources wouldn't be available if it weren't for the people that are paying at least double for the amenities (we pay taxes and amenity fees for all 12 months) that exist?

We payed the same bond, and full time residenohave beenong time beneficiaries of that "generosity".

Let's be kind and helpful, use only what we need and care for those who need our help.

If they are not welcome now then they should keep that in mind for next year. They are all currently leaving and the April people are not coming down. Watch your property values go down if that’s the way the friendliest town in the USA is going to treat people who drove your economy the past years.
