While I was in Melbourne last week, I saw a tv programme showing
how City Councils are insane power-hungry bureaucratic ****s.
This guy grows fruit and vegetables. He has a stall at their
front gate where they give away fruit and veges to his neighbours
on a regular basis. They have been doing it for donkeys years.
Anyway, the Council says he is breaking the law. He must apply
for a permit at a $50 cost *every time* he runs his stall. So if
he sets it up every day that will cost him $350 a week to give
away free fruit and veges.
Who cares?
