    A man in Florida was fined almost $30,000 for letting his grass grow too long. In 2022, the 11th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals ruled against him, stating that the long grass wasn’t harmful to the government but the fine was not excessive, since the homeowner was fined $500 a day , not $30,000 at once.

    What the absolute fuck. How isn’t $500 a day excessive? Fucking rich assholes, man.
