You do realise that not everyone has that innate ability to get an education that the rest of us take for granted. They have perception difficulties that makes it almost impossible to learn to read and write. My brother in law is one of those people. Yet, he built his own roofing business. Then the government got involved. They kept setting up requirements that he was forced to take part in. He was fortunate. By the time, they started on him, he was getting older and he decided to retire early.
There will be no more young people, with his learning afflictions, that will follow in his footsteps and still succeed, in spite of these problems....and it's people, like you, who are taking it away from them.
They're shoeing horses. Let them feel the pride and earn their dignity without the government leaning over their shoulders, monitoring EVERY DAMN THING they do. Just a little common sense would be enough.
I'm sure they'll all thank you, every month, when they get their welfare cheque.

The copyright already exists. They used to ask for a copy of the material being copyrighted when one was applying. You're under no obligation, under the law, to apply for a copyright for anything you publish.
Also, if it is true, as he claims, that no other publisher has ever heard of this law, then it would seem that this guy is being targeted for some egregious reason that we're not privy to.
He's claiming that this law hasn't been applied in years, decades. If you can show that this is a part of every day procedure in the publishing business, TODAY, then you'd have a case. If he is correct, then this is just the actions of an arbitrary and autocratic bureaucrat and really doesn't serve the interests of anyone but that specific bureaucrat.

READ my posts, would you. I, specifically, said that regulations are necessary. Capitalism works when it operates within the law. However, when you OVER regulate, you add costs, stifle creative spirit and hand cuff the entrepreneurial spirit. When a regulation serves no purpose, why would one insist on having it?
Why do you insist that it has to one of the other and only the most extreme examples? Either regulate EVERYTHING or NOTHING. Is there no room for common sense?
Since the topic on who's paying hasn't been brought up, why would I comment on it? Also, what does it matter who pays? If a person can shoe a horse without a high school diploma, why insist on it? All it does is give a job(s) to another government employee(s) and inflate the tax bill for all.

No.....you explain to me, why anyone should learn a trade, that has been in existence for 1000 years, why he, SUDDENLY, needs to have a high school diploma. It wasn't necessary 50 years ago, but now it is. THAT'S what he was talking about.
You're taking away from the guy who wants to learn, because you don't like the guy who's teaching him because you think that he might be a crook. That's a wonderful way to judge a person. Guilty....until proven innocent.
If he is a crook, investigate HIM. Don't penalise the guy who wants to learn. That's what this regulation is doing. You've taken away any chance that he might have to learn from a reputable teacher because the rules state that he's not capable of learning. He's not allowed to even try, because he doesn't fit the criteria that they've set, NOT because the teacher might be a crook.
Thank you, STATE. I thought you were there to help the average citizen, not put up roadblocks.

I've owned a home renovation firm and I've managed a small business for a small company as well. I've had to deal with paperwork, and MORE paperwork, and MORE regulations, until there was so much regulation, that it would take a special consultant to untangle all the requirements.
Apparently, "fuck off" is the official way of telling me that you refuse to answer ANY of my questions.
Great stuff. Through are entire exchange, you've never, once, tried to have an adult conversation and not, once, have you even attempted to answer any of my questions. Then you finish in exactly the way that I expected. "Fuck off". You're quite the intellectual. SMH.

Don't be intentionally obtuse. "They" are the arresting officers of Jennifer Heath. "They" are NOT a "they" who are cops in Peoria. We are talking about a specific case. "They", police officers of Broward county, arrested the wrong woman, Jennifer Heath, who is TWICE the age of the Jennifer Heath that they wanted, was a different height and had a different eye colour. Then "they" held her for 3 days even though there was doubt about whether she was the right person wanted. Her drivers licence even showed that "they" had the wrong person. Worse, there was ANOTHER Jennifer Heath on that cruise, who was ALSO the wrong Jennifer Heath. These police officers of Broward County, the "they" that is being talked about, are at fault for arresting the wrong person, NOT for being at fault for everything.
I'm astounded that this has to be explained to you. I doubt that you'd ask such a question if it was YOU that spent 3 days in jail for no fault. In case you're confused on who the "you" is that I'm talking about, I'm talking about "greg_austin".......you.
