While you may have been charged too much, or taxed too heavily,..... you have NOT been "Raped".

As the friend of a female acquaintance that WAS forcibly raped, I personally hate it when people use that word like that.

Especially when her ex-husband is walking around free because the prosecutor was a moron.

He typed "raked" not raped, you ever been raked over the coals ?

Hey bud, if you feel like saying it, say it, and for some answers check with your local county farm bureau. they can help you figure out if you can stop the permitting, I don't see how they can even know what you're doing.

Why does a person need a permit to operate a air compressor, is it due to diesel emissions?

yes Kalifornia is on a mission to build an ever bigger bureaucracy in the name of global climate change!

In today's news, Big "O" is looking at offering Kaliforia a Bailout of taxpayer's $$$ because it has become so "upside down" due to their inability to raise their own tax rates to cover their ever increasing expenditures.

So it looks like we taxpayers in the other 49 states might have to cough up more of our already short income to subsidize Arnie & Company.
