In any case, a good rule.
Try telling it to people with relatives\connections behind government desks, even small ones. They immediately either have this absent look as if they are calculating with effort how to best hurt you, or the absolutely hateful look as if no piece of you should exist.
That kind of reaction (EDIT: being so prevalent among that group of people) alone hints that today's state bureaucracies have overstayed their welcome.
