Of course, I agree. We think of the federal government as being the most
intrusive, but the real intrusiveness is happening at the local level, with
the states and feds well behind (though in some cases trying to catch up).
I recently did the financial planning and monitoring for building a new
church, and a significant percentage of our costs bought things we didn't
need, but that the busybodies at the county required. But those
requirements were the result of other busybodies demanding it to keep their
neighborhoods sufficiently prestigious, or preventing the sorts of
commercial development they despise because they have other people do their
shopping for them, and our humble little church (maximum seating: 144) was
the unplanned victim. Grrr.

architectural or site fees, for a simple, rectangular but well-built church
building, and then it took a full year to get our $180K in bonds refunded"
