    I appreciate your sacrifice for the common good. Unfortunately, you’re getting screwed just to give some politician a talking point.

      I don’t disagree. We’ll spend $60,000 on engineering reviews making sure a billionaire’s new house won’t flood the street, then another $200,000 in court to tell him he can’t build what he wants, then another $200,000 forcing him to tear out down after he built it anyway, and all we can charge him is 10 grand because of politicians.
