CDLs shouldn't matter...just hop in a truck and make an extra few bucks. You won't be taking any money out a truck drivers pocket & it's safe as hell. What should you charge per mile since we dont have to pay for insurance or anything?
A captain's license from the coast guard shouldn't matter...go pile those 10 guys on your boat and take them fishing for an extra few bucks. You won't be taking any money out of any charter captain's pocket. Do you charge per person or per trip...and how much?
Why do electricians need to be licensed? Hell just go twist a few wires together and slap some drywall over it. You can make some extra money & you wot be taking any work away from the electrical contractors. How much would you charge to wire a house under the table?
No need to worry about the FAA...just buy a plane and start chartering flights. You won't hurt the airlines...its ok, right? How much do you charge per passenger?
Illegal immigrants should be allowed in the country at will, not required to work, and be given free services & housing. No need to pay & wait to do things legally. It won't cost the tax paying, American people.
The above scenarios sound outrageous, but they are actually what the OP is asking & saying.
So yeah...not to rant...but I pay to be in business. I do it the right way. There are numerous licenses and fees to pay on the local & state level...thousands of dollars worth. There are bills & utilities to pay just to be able to do business...tens of thousands of dollars worth. There are certifications to be held by not one, but multiple individuals just so we can unlock the door every morning.
So yeah...do I think EVERYONE should pay the same price & feel the same pain of doing business to be able to do business? You damn right I do.
