Looks to me like he's just getting a ticket. There's no law against taking pictures of anything in a public place, excluding certain government and military facilities.

And the Japs take snapshots of everything, not just everything famous but everything. Back in Tokyo there must be a billion color slides of street corners, turnpike off-ramps, pedestrian crosswalks, phone booths, fire hydrants, manhole covers and overhead electrical wires. What are the Japanese doing with these pictures? It's probably a question we should have asked before Pearl Harbor.

And I suppose I would be bragging about not having to pay $900 property tax on my 4 BR house and 3 acres of land with a disability exemption... I can't even begin to imagine $14K. :S

Well, since Google satellite maps are legal, constitutional and not considered surveillance, or an invasion of privacy in the U.S.- then the average person can use its detailed and accurate photo data as a tool for any number of property related issues ie. Real estate, road and trail access, appraisal, property boundaries, and to determine what a property is being commercially used for. Far as I know all of this information can be printed out and presented in court in the if needed- can't get into details about my own case though.
Beware of the collateralizing and monetization of your desires.

We are actually just about middle of the pack now!


Massachusetts' State/Local Tax Burden Slightly Below Average
Estimated at 9.5% of income, Massachusetts' state/local tax burden percentage ranks 23rd nationally, just below the national average of 9.7%. Massachusetts taxpayers pay $5,377 per capita in state and local taxes. Massachusetts has dropped 17 places in the rankings since 1977 by imposing a property tax limitation and keeping a lid on its personal income tax rate, living down its "Taxachusetts" nickname.

I knew our state had dropped in the standings but didn't realize that low. I moved to Mass. in the 90's from L.I., so I shouldn't complain. Their taxes in comparison are quite a bit higher.
