Isa 58:6 "Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chains of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke?
Isa 58:7 Is it not to share your food with the hungry and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter-- when you see the naked, to clothe him, and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood?

Drama Continues
Reposted to God's Lit'l Acre Urban Farmers site.http://godslilacre.blogspot.com/2017/02/a-little-steve-urkell-with-litl-gods.html
Why when you deal with the government does it have to be so dramatic? Or Traumatic?
A simple building permit which costs $10.00 turns into government saying "oh no! Not for you!" Your going to pay $ 130.00.
Yeap. Last year Clermont County came out with a list of things we should do. Ok, we planned on it anyway.
But we budget and don't do everything at one time so we don't have to take out a loan. When we have the money we'll do it. We told them we only had one problem: "We refuse to have anything to do with Miami Twp, in Milford, Mulberry Ohio ever again!" They are corrupt.
It's not just big government that's corrupt it's every where. Where ever men can tax there is going to people who put their people in offices or department heads. Townships are no different. Follow the money, you'll find corruption.
Here we are again. We decided to ask a friend who is a contractor draw up the plans for a deck on the back of the house. Because it will be attached to the house you need a building permit. We have a professionally drawn draft. Perfect!
But they know our names for anyone new to the situation. For a couple of years we've gone 50 rounds with the twp. over having farming rights, that over turn twp rights in Ohio. .
We can do things without twp approval, and they have harassed, charged us, spied on us almost to the point of exhaustion. Trying to shake us up, wear us down, and get us to give in...to willingly give up our rights. Ohio laws are very set in stone when it comes to farming. In Ohio if you have over 5 acres or are not in a platted subdivision and live in a township you are free to farm on your land!
The only way for them to get us to stop is for us to willingly give up. When that didn't work, our neighbors went to the county to get them to start charging us, disturbing our peace, violating our privacy, harassing us, etc.
