Much like physicians, pilots & CPA's will America's future employee's at ALL levels need to certified for employment by the Dept of Labor & industries? Janitors, carpenters, pro atheletes, I mean every body baby sitters also? Will the day come when all will need to attend a state managed institute of higher education(academic or trade) to be eligible for ANY employment? Will Americans see the day when they are assigned jobs by skill level thru the Dept of Labor & Industries? Will state managed unions dictate worker conditions by creed? I'm noticing that the fields of education, state managed labor(L&I) & unions seem to be getting EXTREMELY inter woven. Will the day of "picking" your field of interest be replaced by an aptitude test & your field of employment be selected for you? Think about it, already you degree(education) in a field say a pilot, verify & register(L&I) for permission to work & the union is mandatory. Is this where we end up. You tell me.

First you certify lawyers, then you certify paralegals, then you certify legal secretaries. (I'm not exaggerating; check out California law.) Give the bureaucrats an inch and they will always take several yards.

What you are describing is the road to socialism and eventually communism. I always say if you don't want to get there, don't head down that road.

What we need is considerably LESS regulation of employment and small business, and in some areas even large businesses. Most of what really needs to be done can be accomplished in tort law, or in stockholders' suits, and do not need to be explicitly regulated by the government. For example, do we need all the micro-management of the Interstate Commerce Commission, or just an ability to enforce the laws about fraud and product liability and the like? Same goes for the entire bureaucratic tangle. Cutting red tape is good for the economy and improves our liberty.

Check out what Ron Paul has to say about these matters.

government i ssuposed to be in place for two things only
1. protect our sovereignty
2. protect citizens rights against force or fraud
anything else is beyond the jurisdiction of government. If we allow gov to expand its role into places that it doesnt belong - then thats on us and we should be ashamed of ourselves for allowing it to happen.

The constitution rightly delinates the powers of government and confines them to certain actions within specific teritories. People blantly assume that the feds are always right and whatever they do is for the good of the country.

Unfortunately this is not true. Government is self-serving. In order for them to grow they must make people dependent upon them. The more the dependency the bigger the government. The trick is to STOP being dependent on the government and stand on our two feet.

If we as a people stand united and tell the governemnt what is going to be done we woudl be better off. If not, what are they gong to do - throw us all into jail - put a wall around the US and call it a prison?

We are supposed to be a UNION of states supporting each other. OOPPPPPSSS - did I just say union - LOL. How do you think the unions got started - it was a group of people banded together for a common cause and force their employer to make changes. We shoudl be doing the same with our government but we dont.

I have no idea why the Sherman Anti-Trust act cannot be extended to unions. A union is simply a company that provides labor services.Competition would only make them more efficient, less corrupt, and more productive.
