LICENSING AND PERMITTING 4 UR PROTEKSHUN

IMO licensing for contracting is a good thing. You need accountability when you are dealing with actual structures and the inherent health and safety concerns.
It’s the required licensing and regulations for stuff like being a barber, hair braiding, etc where it gets ridiculous. There are states where you cannot be a barber if you are a convicted felon. There was also a woman who was braiding hair in her own home who got shut down because she didn’t have 3 sinks in her house. The tests to get certified in some states cost thousands of dollars.
Those regulations are 100# designed to bring in revenue for the state, and are designed by legislators and established business owners to keep competition out.
More on that below:

I don't know about you but I wouldn't go near a convicted felon with a straight razor in his hand, especially anywhere near my neck.grapedrink said:

Sure, depending on the offense. What if was someone busted with a few ounces of pot or stealing a car when they were 18?
Against what, straight razors?
Straight razors, like convicted felons, are not a race or ethnicity.
You still haven't figured out the difference between choice and identity.
Sad
Okay fine. How about use a Gillette or something.
Straight razors are sketchy.
I wouldn't use one on myself let alone someone else.
Many identities are formed because of choices, you really shouldn't be such a bigot. It's gross
Dems love to white knight for black people, until it comes to them exercising their right to better themselves through self determination and entrepreneurship. They’re afraid of losing their welfare class voter base, and that these business owners will succeed and maybe ***gasp*** start voting for republican candidates and interests.
I don’t think you can get much more racist than that.
???????
You show me a licensed contractor in Central Florida and I'll show you someone willing to get stabbed to death on the side of the Turnpike for Trump.
He DGAF about this.
Uh didn't we have an argument about crime and punishment vs rehabilitation and your ilk didn't want to rehabilitate anyone let alone give them a chance to return to normal life without impossible restrictions that would put them straight back into prison?
The only candidate who's talking about prison reform is Bernie.
People like you who don't want a convicted felon to get a job barbering?
It was a joke about straight razors, get over yourself, libertarian child.
I think I'll just leave this here...
I run the barber shop in Pelican Bay by the way. Be out on good behavior in two weeks. Free shaves for select forum members. Call me.

Who’s “my ilk”? I never argued that position. I have a lot of issues with the criminal justice system, and California is among the worst states in that regard, despite democratic control. Weird.
Bernie can talk all he wants, and I give him credit for doing so, but those changes need to be made at the state level.
Well you said "Dems are racists".
What a stupid thing to say.
You've never argued against any of the right wing positions on the US prison system here, which are 10x worse.
