The worst...she'll mandate landlords take section 8 irregardless of the rent. We may soon regret all the rentals in the villages.

You are very correct ! This issue will be fully upon us very soon and sooner if she is elected .

Forcing Section 8 Housing into every Zip Code and incorporated
Town and Village in America is one of OB`s major items on his to be completed domestic agenda .

And he is doing it by tying Federal Funding for say schools to the acceptance and creation of such housing in each and every community .
It will also be tied to rental properties by some means .
In the meanwhile the voters are fast asleep and more focused in this community on the fear that a Development Company might be making an extra dollar form them .
Wait until the Section 8 provisions hit even age restricted communities such as this one .

It's too late now. The development is almost complete. You can't mandate section 8 housing in areas that are already established. They could mandate section 8 housing in any new residential construction on the outskirts of The Villages, but not IN The Villages. Liberals can gloat all they want with the threat (they are not happy until they can make others miserable) but the worst that can happen here in The Villages is that another liberal from the North moves into the neighborhood. But, we are a decent bunch and will humor them as well as ignore them. Personally, I do not mind my liberal neighbors because most of them are amenity paying snow birds. Snow birds pay our amenities while they stay up North most of the year. It may be hot here during the summer but not so crowded and it leaves the courts and courses less crowded, while the snow birds are also hot up North but without the activities we have. As a matter of fact, it frequently gets hotter up North than here.

So, section 8 housing threat in The Villages? I'm not worrying about it. It won't happen.

me too recruited, interviewed, hired, trained, managed... Sad so sad

Sadder is that you can see from this forum and the presidential campaigns that people prefer to blame ridicule, label, rather than focus on America's problems with well thought out solutions. Perhaps its all circular in that they never were taught how to think logically but only to emote. Its enough to make even an atheist pray.

Personal Best Regards:

You have to play to the voters. They do not want facts or policies and don't recognize them when they are given. They want entertainment. America craves, is addicted to entertainment. They love the villain, so they will support an evil person like Hillary. They excuse her multiple crimes and disparage a successful person like Trump, because of wealth envy. Actually, I was not enamored with Trump, but the more I learn of him and his private life, the more I respect him. He has privately helped a lot of folks and it is too bad that he does not allow these things to be publicized because it would help him in popularity. It now appears that he is a lot of huff and puff, but underneath he is a hard charging worker. He has become successful because he has failed on occasion. He has learned by his failures.

Walt Disney went bankrupt in 1921 and built a billion dollar business.
Henry Ford went bankrupt in 1903 and built a multi-billion dollar empire.

Of course, no one gives the Clintons credit for their rise to multi-million dollar success, after leaving the White House "dirt poor" because most of their money came from selling favors, I mean donors from Foreigners seeking favors and speeches given to big business for fees of half million to million bucks a pop. The only thing they have built is a multi-million dollar charity scam that is being investigated for tax fraud.

So, when liberals cut down on Trump for a couple of his bankrupt ventures, I find it disingenuous. Our country is on the brink of bankruptcy and we have already seen the lack of business sense in D.C. so what does America have to lose?

What you're thinking of is low income housing.

This is MANDATING that ALL house rentals, no matter the "rent amount", will be open to section 8. Landlords will be forced to take the voucher and then will get tax credits for the rent over the amount the voucher will pay.

They want to "bust" EVERY neighborhood.

The "solution" is to decrease the amount of minorities in this country. We're currently heading in the opposite direction and we'll be the minority soon.

No, it still won't work in The Villages. Most of the rentals are short term and private rentals. Section 8 housing does not pertain to "vacation" rentals.

Please stop talking if you don't know what you're talking about. There ARE long term rentals in the villages, not MOST...but ENOUGH to make this place just like every other "diversified" sh!thole if "they" start moving in.

I bet the people living in Bridgeport can't wait to have "grandma" from the projects move into the 4,000 SF home next door. There'll be plenty of room for her 8 children and 28 grandchildren to visit...and that family pool...MUCH better than an open fire hydrant.

I can't wait to diversify the villages!

It goes both ways. It is you that is fear mongering, by making ludicrous suggestions that can't happen.

Long term rentals? Sure, my son has a long term rental. Do you actually think that he would rent to section 8? Nope. He can easily go back to short term rental on it. He only went long term because it was an offer and it was convenient. No one is going to allow section 8 in The Villages. It just won't happen. You can spout all of your racist cr@p and worry people about diversity, but no one will bite. I am a conservative, but I will disavow anyone that spouts your divisive cr@p just as I disavow our current Divider-in-Chief for his racist, anti-police cr@p.

So, my advice to you is that if you don't like it here, then move. It's still possible to get top dollar on your home, IF you really live here.

Why should you be excluded?

Does Freedom ring a bell?

I appreciate your well thought out response and I certainly hope that you are 100% correct .
Before I moved down here I lived for 5 years in small town on an island . Population about 12,000 . It was pretty much crime free .
Then came Section 8 Housing which somehow got attached to some type of Federal Grant towards a new updated water treatment system .
It wasn`t long and we had hard narcotics in our high school and many many break-ins committed by young men who lived in the Section 8 housing .

Ouch! No wonder you are worried. We do have a lot of pubic highway going around and through the Villages, so it IS possible for Sect 8 to pop up very close to home. But, I believe we are safe INSIDE the Bubble.

You're wrong, both of you. They want ANY rental house available to section 8. ESPECIALLY in affluent areas. They want to "bust" every neighborhood. You won't get families living here, you could get grandma. And then her "immediate family" is eligible for guest passes...all 35 of them. If they get their way, the villages you've known will be gone.

Why do liberals want to destroy others freedoms? Freedom to associate.

Diversity ALWAYS ends the same. Sh!t.

You're paranoid. You can believe anything you wish, but you are wrong on this. But, like I said believe anything you wish. You can't put section 8 housing in here. It doesn't fit the criteria. If you are so worried, buy yourself ten acres out in the boonies and set up camp there, away from everyone else. I did it in the foothills of NC and loved it, but my wife comes first in my life and she loves it here. I can be happy anywhere that includes my wife. I almost lost her to cancer, so now where I live is not as important as who I live it with.
