Cost to much to make. Easier to take.

The Gov don't like initiative. I'll never ever forget paying for some licenses and seeing the clerk in her office looking at a belks catalog while I was paying over a few hundred dollars to try to start a business. What does my license fee pay for exactly???????

I have been saying that for years.

Take a small town for example. If there is nothing produced, there is no new money coming in. It will just die over time because Money is going out as they import goods and send out money. While some people are working small business' around that town, others are not. The only new money coming in is from people working outside the town, well fair, and other types of money that are not producing products. It is hard for me to type out my train of thought. However over time that town in my example gets more and more poor. The only way to bring in new money is to have producing jobs.

What holds true for a small town, holds true for larger towns, counties, States and our Country.

It pays for that new building in Robertson County that she will eventually be in that has all

the nicer amenities and better security so she can look at her Belk's catalog in peace.
