I wonder how long until they will ban private fishing and hunting. Of course this does not ban gardening all together, but highly regulate it, makes it criminal to plant seed without authorization and licence which means more taxes and oversight. I can't imagine having to drive off to a government institution 6 hours or more away just to register a salmon I caught, pay a tax and then drive another 6 hours back home too cook it.
It will not be long until normal flower gardening is banned as well as it was in Bejing under the cultural revolution. Flowers are unnecessary for the revolution after all and they produce CO2 and take up time that could be spent producing crappy steel in mudfurnaces like in the good old chinese days.
Guess I'll be stockin up one some of those to,,, its getting STUPID out there.
