In the end those with the deepest pockets always seem to get away with doing what the want, and the working man goes to jail for refreshing his beach with a pickup truck full of sand,,,

I'm sure someone will chime in and say its not so, but just get in your boat and ride around and take a look at the new construction going on, its like Beverly Hills East. So much money pouring in to the Winnipesaukee area its almost hard to believe, and you never see anyone in these monster homes, the yards are empty.

Totally different than when I was a kid enjoying the modest surrounding and working class people visiting the lake with our big 16' boats and 35 HP motors pulling 2 skiers at once on their wooden plank skis, or while listening to the 9v transistor radio and the one or two channels you might get ;-)

Now we have $150K wake boats rolling tsunami waves with stadium level sound for owners who come up to their $10M+ dollar home on Saturday and leave it empty the rest of the week.

Guess thats progress.

It's the golden rule, "he who has all the gold rules".
