That\u2018s right, Mr. Borosch makes his money off the backs of minorities just like the Der St\u00fcrmer newspaper poisoned the minds of thousands becoming a major influence that caused the Germans to accept the Nazi agenda. Should the merchants who pay to advertise sell their souls to a Der St\u00fcrmer rag in Lehigh Acres, or would they attract more customers by advertising someplace else?<\/p>\n<p>I find it puzzling that a so-called socialite like Borosch, who lives in Fort Myers, and paid more than $2,000,000 for his mansion in Fiddlesticks, (to see Borosch&#8217;s mansion <a href=\"http:\/\/www.leepa.org\/Display\/DisplayParcel.aspx?FolioID=10262064\" target=\"_blank\">click here<\/a>) drives a Jaguar and a Mercedes that was paid for off the backs of Lehigh Acres minorities. How could Borosch possibly think the average voter of Lehigh could embrace his political endorsements and views? No thank you Mr. Borosch, Mr. Welch and Mr. Hodde!
