... common sense wold seem to dictate that the inspector simply tell him to take that part out of the brochure instead of shutting down his business by threatening him with a fine he could not afford to pay.
Government and common sense in the same sentence?

Lately it seems that state and local govts. are digging deep for every penny of revenue they can scare up, and sometimes they get "creative". They have to justify their jobs.

If they were trying to up state revenues they failed in this case. Now that the business has been shut down California will not collect any more sales tax from his business.
