History of the making of Puna's subdivisions

[bodysurf]

i read 'land and power' some years ago...and even though it left a bad taste in my mouth i always looked at those subdivisions in puna as at least a last great hope for locals to own a first home for cheap and then move on....but now even that one hope is dashed by all the mainland influx and speculative building that has pushed even that dream out of reach for locals....thanks oprah...
