A quote from the article:
" Dave Lenweaver, owner of Clean Slate Farm in Tully, said a mandatory beekeeper registry is an overstep of government authority. His farm practices treatment-free beekeeping, and Lenweaver said government regulation of his hives could impact the quality of the beeswax and cosmetic products his farm produces.
'I'm going to take the gun rights people's approach: leave me alone,' he said. 'I don't want them to come down and say you're going to have to pay us a fee for each colony you have or whatever they're going to come up with.' "

Whats next? Registering our tomato plants in our gardens so we can pay lost tax revenue to NYS ?
Don't be ridiculous... Gardens will have to be registered first...

You mean ALL the plants in the garden?
Plants come next. And don't forget the mandatory inspection when trying to register your 5th plant. And random inspections allowable going forward.

There was a time when the purpose of government was to serve the peoples (citizens) needs.
Now the function of government (especially in New York) is to find new ways to generate more revenue.
These current gov officials don't focus on using our tax dollars productively and efficiently. All they care about are fees, fines, restrictive laws and Red Light Cameras.
And alot (can say most) of the revenue generated goes to pay for Gov employees health, pension, salary and other entitlements.
