Through this type of intervention the State is tampering with free market economy in ways that very few dare to predict where will it end. This is changing the rules of capitalism and replacing them with quasi totalitarian measures. The real problem is that the US treasury is out of the money, they are funding the “economic rescue plans” with very expensive loans from China, Japan and other countries. WRONG WAY TO FIX THE PROBLEM!!!!!!

Palm Beach Commissioners have their heads in the sand. Approving more “affordable housing” that actually costs more than the foreclosures that are on the market is insane. PB Commissionsers think they are they to do only 1 thing. SPEND money… We have 100’s of over priced acreage at Mecca Farms and paid Sailfish Marina millions not to build condos (well spent…dummys) Keep up the good work what’s left of the currupt commissioners. The rest are sure to fall. It’s just a matter of time.

unbelievable amounts of foreclosures and vacant houses. Yeah
