Why Do So Many On INGO Hate HOA's?

It's more like a training camp for the living in a nanny state.

If you don't live in a HOA, why's it on your list?!

Abortion is on my list as well and I've never had one of those either. I've apologized in this thread before for my inability to wear blinders and ignore what I see as wrong. I know that is the new American way, walk on by or pull out your phone and record when someone is getting the **** kicked out of them but it ain't my way.

You've tried invalidating the opinions of people who have never lived under an HOA. Now you want to invalidate mine because I don't currently live in one. What about the people who still live under one? Are their opinions invalid unless they're on the board? What if they are on the board? Are their opinions invalid unless they're the president of the board? What if they're the president and they still say HOAs suck?

Abortion/murder is a far cry from a HOA, but you do you.

How is letting someone live in a HOA wearing blinders? They are free to sign a legal contract, are they not?

Not invalidating, proving a point.

You think they suck. You don't live in one. You'd like to see them gone.

What did I get wrong?

I can acknowledge people find them useful and have the FREEDOM to choose to live in them.

If your situation dictates you must live in a HOA, that's a false statement. HOAs are surrounded by non HOA neighborhoods. Aside from maybe Del Boca Vista, are their any cities that are only HOA?

It's more like a training camp for the living in a nanny state.

Why are you against letting folks have the freedom to live on a 0.17ac lot free from RVs? If you don't want to live there, you don't have to...

I think this thread has run its course. Closing it out.

@Ingomike @firecadet613 You are more than welcome to start a why is an "HOA Awesome" thread if you deem neccessary.

This thread was initially about why those on Ingo hate HOAs. That question has been answered time and time again
