The founders realized that in order to establish a government among men they would have to obtain the consent of the governed. In other words, in order to govern a group of people one needs their permission. So where and how did we go off the straight and narrow when it comes to getting the "consent of the governed" in the millions of residential associations in the US? What I find bewildering is that while the "governed" in HOAs and condos far outnumber the "governors", they do not face much resistance.

Julio Robaina joins us "On The Commons". Julio, a former state of Florida Representative spent time traveling around the state, holding hearings trying to understand the extent of the problems and the reason for the discontent in Floridas HOAs and condominiums. He listened to the owners' stories and their ideas and suggestions of how to "fix" the problems. Once educated on the issues and armed with information, he drafted his bills designed to protect the rights of the homeowners residential associations. He now co-owns a management company so he is still very much involved. We talk to Julio about what he learned and whether the laws and protections put in place by him several years ago are still enforced now.
