[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This pisses me off. We live in an affluent neighborhood where most of the kids walk to school. A bunch of houses on the route (mind you, some are on the only side of the street the kids can walk on because of crosswalk placement) didn't shovel the first snow and gave a half-assed effort for this last snow and now it's one giant sheet of ice. They are able-bodied, and if they somehow are not, we are the kind of community where you could offer to pay the kids $5 and they'd be happy to shovel for them, or even just post on the listserv they are unable and I'd come do it myself.

If they don't want to be a positive part of the community, they should probably move out to the country.[/quote]

Some older folks bought their house many years ago when it was much cheaper and are on a fixed income.  If you want to be a positive part of the community, go help them out rather than complaining.  What is wrong with you?  [b]Because they don't jump when you say jump, they should move out?[/b]  Since you are so rich, you move out.[/quote]
If you cannot physically care for your property and/or cannot pay someone to take care of it, yes you should move. Sounds like selling the house if they are on a fixed income and purchased it many years ago would fund a nice windfall. Perhaps then they can afford to care for whatever property they choose to live in. [/quote]

Where would you like them to go?  Its their home and they have the right to live there.  If you were a good person you'd help.[/quote]
