Jacksonville is a dump....but more like the armpit of the earth!!!   I think this island is a gold mine.   You buy the land then do the good old American thing.....bring in developers to place hotels and sell the property for 10 times the price.   ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mozart720]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 9th 2006 9:16AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Thatch Cay U.S.V.I.]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2006/02/06/thatch-cay-u-s-v-i/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2006/02/06/thatch-cay-u-s-v-i/</guid><description><![CDATA[Shoot, why bring hotels in? I'd personally love that piece of land. No problem here... My own private island I could let my dog run loose.... or with my luck, it'd be like Isla Sorna (or whatever the name of that deserted island is on Jurassic Park 2&3) I could turn the music up loud, without benefit of neighbors. So, I wouldn't have to worry about that neighbors. Think about it... USVI or not.... if it's YOURS, you're still in America, you haven't left yet. If it's YOURS, you can just pick and choose who you want to come visit. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bridget]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 9th 2006 9:33AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Thatch Cay U.S.V.I.]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2006/02/06/thatch-cay-u-s-v-i/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2006/02/06/thatch-cay-u-s-v-i/</guid><description><![CDATA[bah, I can buy one of many islands in the Philippines that are around 1/2 to 3/4 the size of this island for $200,000 to $300,000.

Several Reasons But I'll Give you only A Few.......1. Duval County(Jacksonville)Used To,OR Still Does Have The highest per capita lung cancer rate in U.S.   2. Partly Because of The Paper Mill Industry   3. Jacksonville isn't Florida,it's Georga. The map was drawn wrong. 4 Jeb Bush ISN'T Governor Of U.S.V.I. 5. Too many residents are ignorant enough to think U.S.V.I. is foreign]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[JannetMoore]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 9th 2006 10:53AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Thatch Cay U.S.V.I.]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2006/02/06/thatch-cay-u-s-v-i/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2006/02/06/thatch-cay-u-s-v-i/</guid><description><![CDATA[WOW A PLACE WITH NO WAR!!!!, POVERTY!!!!, OR INSANE PEOPLE!!!!

I'd leave it as natural as possible, build a small hut and live off the land.  <br><br>If a hurricaine destroyed it, what would we have lost that we couldn't rebuild?  And we wouldn't have to worry about insurance claims or lost "valuables".  The most valuable thing we would have would be our LIVES and simple BELIEFS AND VALUE SYSTEMS.  Although I would definitely establish some sort of storm shelter.  <br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Amanda]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 9th 2006 1:18PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Thatch Cay U.S.V.I.]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2006/02/06/thatch-cay-u-s-v-i/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2006/02/06/thatch-cay-u-s-v-i/</guid><description><![CDATA[LOL....all of these guys on here trashing Jacksonville , probabley live in some hole like Detroit or Cleveland]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Craig]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 9th 2006 1:45PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Thatch Cay U.S.V.I.]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2006/02/06/thatch-cay-u-s-v-i/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2006/02/06/thatch-cay-u-s-v-i/</guid><description><![CDATA[Number 8, you should "brush up" on your geography and spelling.
