Re:Contractor's licenses??

Welcome Rory,

My brother works under a general contractor and we were ranting about licenses and building codes, and most of the issues that have been discussed here were covered.

I also mentioned that if I were a workman who had to have 3rd parties inspect/approve my labor I would be very insulted. But most look at the inspectors as an authority figure, deserving of respect. How backwards!

I like Jersee's anology of the King and the Servant. Does the King bow to the Servent when he enters the room, or ask the Servant for his approval on his descisions?

I think not!

If so, there are no absolutes, and the only logical conclusion is that reality, truth, and right and wrong are determined arbitrarily on a daily basis by those with the most power, guns, and money, and the rest of us can choose to run, fight, or be their slaves.
