Theme Cities - If I was Rich

I would build a town strictly out of the 1950s', everything is from the 50-60's, the homes, cars, streets, stores, and in the stores were items from the 50-60's appliances, wash & dryers, a Soda Fountain at the 5 & 10, the old J.C. Penny and Sears buildings, a park in the middle of town for Concert's, all the stores such as Hardware, Market, Barber, Hair Saloon, Drugstore, Bank, Library, City Hall, Convention Center, Fire & Police Station, Hospital, Automotive repair for all makes 1950-1960.


Everyone who lives withing the City Limits works in the City...and within walking distance of stores, schools, etc.  Bicycle Paths, walking paths in town, a jogging path around the outskirts of town.  A shuttle bus for the elderly & those with special needs...paid by the City.

The town would have several Parks, where everyone knew everyone, watched out for the children, took part of the neighborhood watch, the town would be off the main highway.

Schools would be all located in one area, all grade levels, with the highest paid teachers.  Our school teams would compete with other schools in all areas of academics and sports...one large area for Football, Soccer, Basketball, Volleyball, Track and Field, even a Skating Rink, Movie Theater indoor and one outdoor...only you do not need a car.

No Malls, no massive parking lots, no high rise buildings, nothing over 3 stories tall, everything designed when an emergency happens, Fire, Police & Medical have easy access, their equipment can reach, every home and building has a sprinkler system, emergency communication direct to Fire or Police or Medical at the push of a button.

All underground electrical, communications, no Telephone poles, wireless throughout..and for an Industrial area, that would be 10 miles out of town...a buffer zone.   In the Industrial area a Distribution center for all Delivers, the town people who worked in the City would then pickup and make the deliveries to their store/business...no big trucks in town, etc.

One place only for Horses with trails, no off road vehicles, strict noise enforcement, , no Airport no planes flying overhead...why would any one want to leave town. Special land parcels for large families that would maybe have 3-4 homes a Cul-de-Sac for members of the same family to live.

There would be a Package Store for Alcohol sold, which is by delivery only....No Bars, you stay home and drink there.

Medicare Fraud Doctor bills $35 million to Medicare

Medicare Fraud - Oncologist Doctor Farid Fata falsely billed $35 million to Medicare over a 2 yr period after lying to his patients telling them they had cancer, enter chemo who do not need it nor did they have Cancer.  

How many Americans cannot afford Health Care, then you have a Doctor padding his pockets, and imagine the harm he has caused patients who do not have cancer and their families grief.  Not to mention ripping off Tax Payers not even on Medicare.  


How many more Medical Personnel are falsely billing ripping off Tax Payers
