Mammele – All you needed to say was that those who want a pool is a small minority of Satmar, and that small minority (who somehow have big political clout) has no money to create a pool, as the Satmar Organizations have better things to do with their money.
As this isn’t a big deal, even for Satmars, and will only affect a few people if the pool stops being gender segregated, I don’t think this is worth the time people are putting into it.
Your post does raise a good question though, and I don’t know the answer: Why do the Satmars, as communities, not provide “community centers” for their members? It would seem that these communities are most in need of such centers, as (mostly in Williamsburg) apartment dwellers.
