When was your friend's property taken away from him?
Very interesting...being illegal in construction will get someone only so far. I went to a legal day laboring hire office and the demand for skilled legal labor is very high. I am beginning to realize whining won't solve this issue. I have better things to do.

As soon as he fails to make his property tax payment.
