When you arise in the morning,
give thanks for the morning light,
for your life and strength.
Give thanks for your food and the joy of living,
If you see no reason for giving thanks,
the fault lies with yourself.

It also bad in red states like Florida with petty state and local agencies dictating what land owners can and cannot do with their property. Almost every central Florida county has a full time arborist who tells the land owner/developer how many trees they must have on their property and where they must be located or pay a fine.
Heck Volusia County’s Department of Elections just spent $ 9 million on buying a strip mall to put their facilities. Their justification was they won’t have to pay rent like they are now. They didn’t publish nor were required to publish any financial data as to why owning was better than renting. You bet they won’t have any of the hassles that a private buyer would to renovate the property to their needs. Even when they move in the other tenants in the mall will stay. This creates a financial conundrum because the business pay taxes while the elections office does not. No one from what I read questioned or demanded more info on this decision. Just another local bureaucracy spending taxpayer money without being held to account for their decision.
My county probably has some similar dictators lurking in the county offices like an arborist.
One of the worst state departments in central Florida is the Saint Johns River Water Management District. Heaven help you if you have property that is on the St. Johns River. Not only do you have to have the city or county approve but the SJRWMD supersedes them and has a totally different timeline.
Too much bureaucracy at the local level in a so called red state. Just as poisonous as the poison infesting the Pacific Northwest and the Rocky Mountains only more subtle.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, so that’s what it is all about with the biggest traitor since Benedict Arnold?
I am convinced that those traitors WILL HAVE A RECKONING.
That’s why I haven’t donated.
