It may have something to do with what kind of state government you have. Center left governments seem to have larger bureaucracies. Center right tend to have less government regulation.
Think of a bureau within state government .... could be any bureau. Within that bureau -or- department are regulators. Regulators aren't out there in the real world. They don't make things happen. They just make rules and and impose those rules on the people who are out there in the real world and getting things done.
It's natural for things to grow and evolve. Plant a seed and a huge tree can grow from it over time.
My suggestion would be to fly under the radar till you're big enough to afford the cost of their regulation. They'll probably leave you alone as long as you aren't bothering anybody.
