    Gonna start with: Fuck ICE.

    As to your comment about a gated community, there some logistics around it such as the loss of city/county maintenance of roads and usually trash service. Yes they are well within their rights but it does create a lot of additional headaches.

      Trash service is private, you’re either paying your community to pay the company or paying the company directly. Not a big difference.

        Correct but it’s still logistics exactly the same as the road. You’re either paying the community to fix your roads (via taxes) or paying the company directly. You also lose a lot of the economies of scale and negotiating power as you’re now a smaller entity.
