"If they had to put their personal funds on the line to purchase the property, I assure you, none of these kinds of stories would exist."

That is so true! Whenever they try to raise money around here to buy land for "open space" to prevent it from being developed, they never raise more than a few thousand from private individuals - those who say they're desperate to save the land! When they've gotten the money, most of it has come from local, state and federal government grants - proving again how much easier it is to do things with OPM (Other People's Money)...
