Have the code Nazis hit on your car?

i lived in Marietta, Ga. for about 18 yrs. During that time, I restored a 70 Corvette in my basement garage. Whether I was driving the car or not, I was required to have it registered. It's called Ad Valorem, folks. If I had had the car unregistered for 5 yrs. while in restoration, then tried to get plates, I would have to pay a fine plus the previous 5 yrs. worth of Ad Valorem. Its revenue and the law. All I can say is - try to fight it! just be prepared to waste a lot of time, a lot of money, and accept a lot of disappointment!
Then, the Atlanta Metro area came up with water restrictions. If your house address was an odd number, you could water your yard from 10:00 pm to 4:00 am or something stupid like that. Absolutely no car washing!!! You had to take your car to an approved car wash that recycled their water! Like I was going to take my Corvette to one of those places! Also, if you used a certain percentage more water one month than the month before, you paid a super premium price. And then, there were the water Nazis.
Needless to say, I got the hell outa there!
The I moved to a podunk county in East Tennessee. When you see what some of these stooopid rednecks can do, you appreciate restrictions. As much as I hate to say it - You're better off keepin your mouth shut and trying to comply. The old saying "you can't fight city hall" might be truer than you think!
