So is selling cars you fix yourself if you do more than a certain amount per year without a dealers license. Typically around 4 or 5 per year depending on the state. Land of the free my ass. "Oi mate you go' a loicense for tha' loicense?"

Fuck man, have you ever tried to do work on your own home? The permitting process to put up a fucking doghouse is insane.

Yeah it's ridiculous. Same goes for any sort of structure like a simple shed, a tree house, or even a pool. As long as it doesn't fuck up power lines or plumbing you should do whatever you want on your own property.

I've been informed that the garage on my property is grandfathered in, which means that I'm not allowed to make any changes to it. If the garage were to be damaged or destroyed, it's unlikely that I would be able to replace it due to current zoning regulations.

That's crazy, American restrictions are so retarded sometimes for literally no reason other than rich people to fuck us over.

I was told it's because the property line is too close to the neighbors, which also doesn't make any sense, because it's still on my property and there's still a garage there. So, if I put another garage in the exact spot where the current garage is, what difference would it make?

It's just extortion basically. I can imagine if you have an off grid home in bum fuck nowhere they would spite you every opportunity they got even with no one around to bother. They also want you depending on them. Many laws are created by rich assholes which is why the punishment is often just paying off the government in some way for a lot arbitrary laws. They have to make extra money to embezzle somehow. I guess taxes and insider trading isn't enough.

No need to imagine anything, all it takes is one dickhead next door to file a report. This kind of shit feels way more nefarious than plain old extortion but I can't quite put my finger on why.

Because the rich can't really get any richer, so they have to make us poorer to widen that gulf even more. It's not about them taking more for themselves, but destroying what little the common man still has.

This is very true and you can see it in how companies have child like unrealistic expectations of having infinite growth and profit increase forever.
