A few links came across our email today — we’ve seen a couple of them before.
Tom has written a commentary on the idea that in Utah, your garden may be outlawed.
Why do he and others think this? Because any attempt to ‘register’ something on your property can only lead to counting, taxing, and then regulating — possibly right out of existence.
Taxpayers across NH wrote to us to ask why the 2010 American Community Surveys they got from the Feds would ask such questions as “do you have a garden, what do you do with the produce” etc. We advised that they decline to answer. What business is it of the government’s what you do on your own property?
We hope Utahns and others will see through this. Looks like some have caught on already.
