That is one building so TMWOT it's a bit of a stretch to call it a
'community'. It's hardly community minded to whine or have rules about
a
person having one tomato plant on their deck.

Do not bet on that one... It depends on the association. Some
condominiums
have very strict rules. Such places are nice for the elderly and those
with
a busy city lifestyle.

I'm quite sure there are places which say they are a 'community' and
have
extremely strict rules. That does not meant hat they have any idea
whatsoever of what 'community' means.

In the country where I live there are no such ordinances. I do not
even
have to mow my lawn and I can have old rusted out cars on my front
lawn
and
no one would say or do anything about it.

Well that soudns much better than living some place where anal
retentives
waffle on about 'nice lawns'.

The US has different kinds of communities and I believe those that are
like
minded should have them.

Segregation and apartheid works just like that.

If I remember reading many years ago that Australia had a White Only
immigration policy. Is that true of today's Australia?

No. That went out long ago. Now immigrants are enriching Australia
materially and culturally, just as they enriched the U.S. I remember
long ago Australians being ****ed w/Asian immigrants because they
worked like dogs; lived 10 to a room behind the business; ended up
rich! Meantime, the white Australians lived on welfare that didn't
even (AFAIK) have a means test like in the U.S.

(we had to work
'n'months out of the year to be eligible for benefits). I met people
in Oz who had been living happily on welfare for years. Of course
this was years ago -- I spent the summer Down Under during the - was
it 1984 Olympics? Around there. So I trust things have changed.
Australia is still very cruel to asylum seekers from brutal
dictatorships.

Australia does the same thing with asylum seekers as does the US. The US
puts arriving asylum seekers into mandatory detention until their claim for
asylum is assessed. Australia does exactly the same thing. I agree about
that being cruel.

Unless they are mass murderers that have worked for the CIA.

Obama is now backing a bipartisan Senate budget plan that would overhaul Social Security and Medicare, while cutting taxes on the wealthy.
