yeah - courts gonna go for that second class of citizen outlined in the constitution
do they really think labor is gonna be cheap when they have legal status?
how long before the unions get them signed up?
this entire thing is a fraud
The Internet sales tax is going to kill a lot of small operators who are low margin, high volume on certain items...
The EPA, DER, DEP, DNR, Dept Int, Dept Ag, all have final and complete “say” in regulating chemicals - insecticides, pesticides, fungicides - because of soil and groundwater contamination and in PA’s case, the Chesapeake Bay. Then, the ACoE (Army Corps of Engineers) gets heavily-involved, since “they own all water rights in the lower 48 states”.
Licenses & handling permits, proper storage, application techniques, record keeping, fees, monthly inspections for disease & insect infestation all fall under their purview and regulatory responsibility.
They can shut you down in 10 secs, or if you’re on ‘good terms’, give you a second chance to get it under control, with weekly re-inspections. They can quarantine entire production fields - corn, beans, fruit, potatoes, wheat etc - at a whim, and fine you right out of business.
The paperwork and record keeping for a medium Family Farm Business, as mine was, required 2-3 people and hundreds of hours/month, plus expensive training classes during winter months to keep all applicators’ licenses current.
Applicators’ Licenses had to be displayed along with all the other 15-16 licenses we had to have to be in business (Sub-S Corp), and numbers displayed on all trucks, ads, bus cards, stationery, websites etc. The rules & regs were beyond onerous, since 2007-08, when the EPA and other fed and state agencies went frigging NUTZ.
From 1990, it was fun to own and be in business; around 2008-09, it wasn’t fun anymore. I shut down and liquidated assets in 2011. Property and buildings will be auctioned this Friday. That $8.5mm operation was my retirement. It’s not worth near that much now.
I’ll be living in a refrigerator’s empty cardboard box, in a downtown York/Lancaster vacant lot, in a few years during my “retirement”.
Whatever you do, keep it to yourself and quiet, if you’re doing it for personal use. If it’s a commercial op, that’s a whole different bowl of cereal, murrie.
Sorry to ramble. Did I answer your question?they own all water rights in the lower 48 states
I am so sorry.... this doesn’t sound like America. This just breaks your heart.
I might make that shot with my Barrett & Leupold-BORS... a slightly different trajectory.
with this regime there is no report card...no guilt or guilty......money ? let’s print some. Too big to fail ? Ax John Candy.....
Unions i.e. mafia is taught, encouraged, and when challenged beats you dead
Muslims ? Can’t wait til America plays Cowboys and Muslims
Paddrick Harrington actually par’d that hole
It isn’t, anymore. We’re being “fundamentally transformed”... into something unrecognizable as a Republic.
Sorry if I killed this thread, All...
you ain’t killed nothing - unless you get banned, pick a hole and jump on it
Plus all the Entrepreneurs who risked their money opening an internet business and making it what it is today.
The brick and mortar stores are benefiting just as much.
the more about this ricin stuff I hear,,,the more it sounds like a set up
I totally think it was a set up.
The guy may be a kook but...
kook butt...........I like it
The hypocrite already forgot about ‘fast and furious’.
The Supremes will sort it out. Boner will probably stay silent.
Whatever happened to the Anthrax Guy(s), after 9-11-01? Wasn’t he smeared and the wrong one, too?
