years talking serious
You're talking serious money already in the bank, and millions of dollars coming in every year.
land stuff discrimination
So as soon as the land was worth something and there was money in the bank, all of a sudden everybody got interested in non-discrimination, in who's really going to administer this stuff.
common interest clash
So there's always been this clash between what is the public good - that which belongs to all of us in common - and what can be exploited for a private interest.
