These private quasi-governments are called homeowner associations, or HOAs. While California has the most HOAs of any state (50,000), Florida has far more HOA residents as a percentage of its population. The association also provided its residents with "the usual privileges of a citizen in any free state," Tullock wrote. Readers will not be shocked to learn that Clarke and Freedman also found that HOA residents were more likely to be white or Asian than non-HOA residents. (Cashin observed that several states, including New Jersey and Texas, had laws allowing HOA residents to subtract the cost of privately provided infrastructure from their taxes.)

Mr. McClish, a hiker who does landscaping in forests that have been razed by wildfires, appeared to have been swallowed by the woods. “I was just so astounded by being lost,” he said in a telephone interview.

Dove didn't have much time to grieve, though. "I pushed back because I didn't think it was rewarding. I didn't think I would feel like I was contributing to society in a meaningful way as an investor," Dove said. Dove didn't want to work even more hours, which would force her to sacrifice time with her kids, so she made more with less. "Although we have not hit our FI number yet, we will reach our target amount by our target date with just what we contribute from my husband's income," Dove said.
