I posted this in reply to a simplistic Nextdoor post that wrote that HOAs are governments:
Yes, HOAs and SCG are not simply nonprofits, charities, or for-profit entities. They are, in a complete description, a contractual, private government allowed to function outside constitutional protections under the guise that the members openly and with full knowledge agreed to surrenders and waivers of their rights under the US and state Constitutions.
I suggest concerned people seeking the truth read my simple pamphlet, “HOA Common Sense: rejecting private governments” as a starter. We can then have a meaningful discussion of the issues. It’s on Amazon for just $3.00 Kindle edition.
Or go to https://pvtgov.wordpress.com and search on Common Sense. A preface can be read here Preface to HOA Common Sense. SHALL WE MOVE AHEAD IN A MEANINGFUL MANNER?
