RE: The Freedom To Sell Baked Goods From Your Own Home
Wow. The governments don't want anyone to make extra cash because they have no control over it or be able to charge tax and whatever lies they make up (always for the safety of the people) we all know it's all about the money. They need to be in control of everything.
In Canada for example you can't have more than two garage sales/year so that you don't turn your neighborhoods into traffic-jammed commercial corridors.
I also heard from a family policeman that if you are having more than 2 garage sales that means that the property you are selling is stollen.
It's just bunch of lies. It's all about control and money and it is really sickening.
Just because you have more than 2 garage sales a year means the property you are selling is stolen?! Wow, that is just ridiculous. You could still sell things on Craigslist etc. (do you have craigslist in Canada?)
I know. It's pretty ridiculous. It wasn't always like that, only like few years ago they changed the law.
Yes, we have Craiglist and I used it once in a while.
Here in my town in Tennessee we have a similar law. We can't have more than 2 garage sales a year. I think its more about them taking business away from big businesses and not being able to charge tax on the earnings or something. It's been a while since it passed but I remember the reasoning being greed on the governments part.
