Re licensed vs unlicensed or homeowner I do not believe any laws would be impinged if basic construction laws are adhered to.
I know that some municipalities require inspections of components of work and also reserve specific items for licensed workers.
Generally things like connecting appliances to gas lines, tapping municipal water and waste lines and also electrical feed.
I can see the need for that (public and worker safety).

IIRC, the stores here won't even sell a gas water heater unless you produce a permit.

Sadly, there are many groups who have a vested financial interest in encouraging the average person to be dependent, helpless, and as reliant on others as possible.

That does not mean that we should settle for being only slightly better than that.
If the tech and entertainment industry were to leave California, the state would be left with the "State" being the biggest employer. Tell me how a state can survive financially when GOVERNMENT is the biggest employer? It is the Governments money ! No, it is the money that the Government skimmed from the working citizens.
They talk of how they are financially sound but rarely do you hear of the huge balloon payment of public employee pension and medical costs that are looming on the horizon. It used to be that a skilled person only took a state job because they were not good enough to make it in the private sector. The generous wage and benefit packages (At taxpayer expense, of course) have made it where the smart and selfish money is in Government work.

A start would be term limits for ALL political offices and end this career corruption. The career politicians get health care like kings, work darn few hours (if any, really) and pat themselves on the back after spending years to pass a law that only affects us law abiding citizens. Like gun laws. I'm not even a gun owner (oops, now I'll get robbed) but crazy politicians want to toughen gun laws?!?! LAWS DONT MATTER TO THE PEOPLE SHOOTING EACH OTHER IN DETROIT. It's a war zone 1 mile south of where I'm standing. https://www.fox2detroit.com/news/2-men-killed-in-shooting-on-detroits-east-side The local news is shooting, shooting, shooting, weather, traffic, car chase, shooting, shooting, good night.

Funny news story while sifting through all the shootings..... Bernie Sanders calls water 'human right,' slams Detroit shutoffs. But I have to actually PAY my water bill. Politicians should pass a law, You have to pay your water bill unless you don't want to. In that case we'll charge the people that do pay more.

Since government was first conceived, the addiction to power has ALWAYS resulted in the governments number one unstated priority is simply self preservation, and its often hidden by seductive causes of the moment. Why the public thinks this is a spectator, click on cruise control and forget it experiment, and everything will be OK, is beyond me.


Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

My SIL's family were missionaries in SA. My daughter wet there to visit them. Boy was that an eye opener for her and her Dad (me) has been to numerous third world places and had already shared those observations with her. But sometime you have to be there to feel it.

Who remembers when the high buck politicians were called Public Servants.Yes thats what they are public servants from the lowest public employee to the Prez.But it seems we have lost that concept.We pay them so they can make more than the average person .Let alone many are deaf to the people.Rocky

Back on topic, sure it's "illegal" but I don't see it being enforced very often...usually only when there's a complaint. Use your head and you won't have a complaint filed.
