These were not poor people who were buying second homes for that price. You must have heard of The Villages. It's one of the largest retirement c

British Columbia Lottery taking bets on US electionReply
This article hit my reader earlier and sums up my feelings to a T . I haven't stated it publicly before now, but I don't think Trump can win this election.
