10. Zoning is a good idea

Houses here, business over there and industry has a place.
However the local governments get out of control. I can't cut my trees without asking permission. My community dictates some architecture for housing and industry. I own 16 acres but I am not allowed to build homes for my sons on the property. However the zoning laws are not enforced on everyone! The campground next door does what ever they want.
A guy up the road runs a swimming pool business out of his home. He has dump trucks and heavy equipment on the property.
All this is only some of the issues in my community and it is why I dislike zoning.
