Community "Self Anointed Godfather"
Refers to Others as
"Jerks"
Mr.
Berman, let's get something straight.
How dare you make such a statement, referring to those Sun City Anthem residents who wished the various Sun City Anthem Centers would have remained open to those who voluntarily would have utilized them ?
"I would love to name some of these jerks, but better to avoid a spitting contest. Spitting transmits viruses"
For years you have made every attempt to embrace a "machine" that needs reevaluation more so than ever before.

For years you have made every attempt to embrace a "machine" that needs reevaluation more so than ever before.
We finally started making a community aware of "machine" antics in the 2019 election, but your choices over the past few years who have included Arthur Scheutz, David Weil, James Coleman, and Candace Karrow....
...have proven what we have told the community for years...
THEY, like you, WERE POLITICAL HACKS and part of a "machine" that need to be removed from the governance of our community.
You endorse incompetence, lack any sense of financial responsibility, and over the years, have done your best to favor individuals who have insulted residents, made foolish financial decisions, and have created an atmosphere through your disturbing behavior and twisted commentary that resembles a grocery store tabloid...
...even being named to the HOA Hall of Shame by Channel 13 reports on two separate occasions.
Why?
For one reason, your ego has an unnatural need to accomplish something in your retirement life that you were never able to achieve prior to that time...
....recognition.
....recognition.
Your life is so much like those you consider good leadership qualifies.
You favor incompetence because that's what you yourself have accomplished...NOTHING of any particular significance that would qualify you or them to own and/or operate any organization.
You favor incompetence because that's what you yourself have accomplished...NOTHING of any particular significance that would qualify you or them to own and/or operate any organization.
...even going so far IN YOUR PARTICULAR CASE, to be a part of criminal activity that cost you a law license in order that you could work in a government run computer room, likely living off your wife's income for support.
Just how did you ever pass an employment federal background check, much less have the audacity to look at yourself as some kind of role model others should gravitate to for guidance?

Sun City Anthem has been forced to put up with you for years...
But...
... when it comes to referring to others as "jerks" because they disagree with you and have made an attempt to ask honest questions as to how their association is properly governed and managed, this time you have finally gone too far.
After reading your latest commentary, all I could imagine was a time in the past when during a congressional hearing, this question was asked of Senator Joseph McCarthy:
Have you no sense of decency?
Since
the corona virus began, many, not merely a few, have expressed a
POLITE opinion where "choice" was preferable to "ordering"
a person how to live...
...but
we, as part of a CIVILIZED SOCIETY, never referred to
others who disagreed with the decision to close an entire community
in any derogatory term.
Instead
we respected their views, and hoped they would respect ours.
You obviously are incapable of doing do.
And
referring to those who dare disagree with your opinion as "jerks",
is just another outrageous action of a man who looks in the mirror
and considers himself the UN-ELECTED community "godfather"
of Sun City Anthem.
Rather, to most in the community, you are "the one who pokes his nose in every place it is never wanted".
All of us are concerned about the corona virus....ALL OF US...but there are others, many more than a mere few, who were very displeased at actions that were taken to CONTROL OUR LIVES in such a manner that will result in the chaos you and your "types" have created.

Your
"types" have created an atmosphere where trillions of
dollars of retirement funds have been lost to those of all age
groups, likely affecting the lives of senior citizens more so than
the younger members of our society.
Your
"types" have forced working families with children to
readjust their entire lives as they search for answers as to how
their children will be educated and fed and supervised while all
schools will be closed.
Your
"types" have created an atmosphere where individuals are
storming grocery stores and hoarding anything that is not glued to a
shelf.
...and
your "types" have killed the Las Vegas economy, and the
"goose that laid the golden egg" that has allowed your
"types" to enjoy a lifestyle all of us are now being forced to accept and adjust to "the new Vegas" that will be very different
than the one that once existed.
...and
do you know how your "types" will pay for these actions ?
Our
"types"...
...the
ones who did everything to remain calm, be cautious, and use common
sense in determining their actions before drastic decisions were made
in order to AVOID the PANIC your "types"
created.
But... what your "types" cannot comprehend is that the panic you
and those "in charge" have fueled out of FEAR, will likely
create such chaos that the entire Las Vegas community will suffer for
months, if not years, to come.
That translates into MONEY..FINANCIAL DISASTER; funds that will have to come from us, the
taxpayer, due to the vast amount of revenue that will now
evaporate.
We
preferred a calm approach that did not close an entire world to
freedom of choice, and us "jerks" are not in any way
apologetic in any way because by doing so, none of the above would
have occurred.
It
appears that our state will now be "closed for business"
for at least a 30 day period, and if you believe that all will be well
following that period of time, you need a lesson in life.
That decision has now been made, and we must all now comply, no matter our views, but get ready for your worst nightmare that will long remain after this virus disappears.
What will that PANIC create?
Unemployment
lines will soar; people will lose their medical insurance benefits,
and with just about everything closed, people who once had OPTIMISTIC LIFE, will
now be faced with ECONOMIC DEATH.
Entertainers who are contractors, not employees, will not be able to obtain unemployment benefits and they will be forced to leave, killing many entertainment venues.
We cannot forget another aspect of this rash of fear.

We cannot forget another aspect of this rash of fear.
When desperate people are faced with desperate decisions, they react
out of survival...
...and
such desperate survival of many, often results in VIOLENCE toward persons who have what others have, to exist.
Gun shops have been emptied and ammunition for existing weapons are now in short supply. Who do you believe emptied those stores?

What's
next?
Who knows, but if VIOLENCE becomes "the norm", as it has in the past when societies are repressed, you
will likely see a National Guard patrolling our city, despite what
the governor stated in his address that he could hardly read
without stumbling though its contents.
We live in a city that depends on gaming, and that source of revenue has now completely ceased to exist for at least 30 days.
It changes life as
we know it.
Just
remember, your "types", through your uncontrollable panic stricken reactions, as time passes will be every bit
as responsible for creating a problem that a virus initiated, while
our "types" pleaded to remain calm in the face of
uncertainty.
That's
not the America us "jerks" grew up in; that's the America
the likes of you need to appreciate and relish through well thought out decision making...
... the same life you now wish to STEAL by controlling the many aspects of a society conceived and dedicated to FREEDOM....
...which
in any dictionary, describes SOCIALISM.

When the idea of closing the centers was first raised by management to the board, I was one who said, "no, not at this time, you are over reacting."
However, as the days have passed, the Governor, following suit of many other cities and states, has mandated all of these closures, knowing the devastating effect it will have on our city and population, I am looking at this differently.
I cannot help but think that the government knows much more about this virus than they are letting the population know.
NEVER before has such drastic action been taken, although we have seen pandemic like health crises before
We all have no choice now but to go with the decision and be open to helping those trade people somehow recover after the devastating loss of business.
"Throwing stones" at people who thought, and still think it is an over reaction is a total waste of humility and energy.

I find I must disagree with one of your points:
"For one reason, your ego has an unnatural need to accomplish something in your retirement life that you were never able to achieve prior to that time... ....recognition."
Seems that he got A LOT of recognition from the State of Massachusetts a few years ago!

I provided this to the other Blog yesterday. I share it here as it correlates with your subject of the inappropriate use of the term “jerk” as a reference to those that disagree with you.
************
D. Berman I have now come to the conclusion that reading or subscribing to your blog is a waste of my time.
Your blog rarely provides knowledge, humility or purpose.
Frequently you make accusations towards others and create an atmosphere of negative consequences.
Sadly you present yourself as a sad little man seeking attention or admiration.
Yes, you have a small group of sycophants that feed your desire
Recently you posted about unnamed “jerks”......more of the same.....I suspect your well qualified to know one..( Birds of a feather flock together).....let’s be straight for the uninformed..... A jerk in the slang as you presented It tends to mean..........
a contemptibly naive, stupid, or insignificant person.
A foolish, rude, or contemptible person.
Take a deep breath and realize for a moment.....these definitions seem to fit you in many ways.
If there is something you need to do to remove me from your blog....do so immediately.
I will do what I have to do to accomplish the same. -
From Robert Nusser...to...Anthem Opinions
Just think how much $$$ SCA would have lost IF they had forced-through a restaurant on us AND then have it closed down due to the Corona virus.
I wonder if any resident realizes that WE would have been responsible for ALL the overhead even though a restaurant was closed? -
Robert, there you go with logic again !
-
Just a reminder that all who agree with a publication referring to fellow residents as "jerks" ...
...have as much "class" as the one who originally did so...
...that in doing so yourself, makes others aware of an individual's lack of it...
...that water seeks its own level...
...and that Anthem Opinions would never refer to any element of our community in such a derogatory manner.
