I just don't know how naive some are, not that I even think myself worldly. I've seen vending machine sushi, yet someone is the scapegoat. Time warner published a song by maroon 5 called am I wrong, but myself never being called a genius, actually an ignoramus, by fellow coworkers who couldn't do a simple backup and restore when I installed a system that had 5000 users on 10 meg of memory. Is it that everyone's wrong, not stupid? If at least they know they are, they can meet someone halfway. If they tossed a coin, they'd be right half the time instead of absolute zero. Computers used to have a decide command. Return that. Regardless of who I voted for, how could people complain about replacing someone who was wrong at almost everything?

Which brings me to the point of saying you don't need a license to be revoked from said privilege. People have license to carry guns. While others have felonies preventing them from carrying, regardless of whether they were ever licensed to carry at all. It doesn't have to be a felony, but anything on their record preventing them permission to perform said violation again is all that is needed. Making people pay for a license, just so said license can be revoked at a later date is only an excuse for them to charge a fee.

It's all fun and game till YOU EAT A RAT TURD and get sick. These regulation are in place to be able to track down the source as quick as possible.

Right! And having a drivers license helps police track down drug smugglers. Seriously how can you be so twisted?

Irrelevant detail. We're squabbling about the law, not her prospects in the relationship market.
no, the seller doesn't have the incentive to keep the food good. for any business profit comes first.
it's like you don't know just how much expired food is sold every day or just how many chemicals are used to keep the meat looking red. anyone who says that he trusts blindly is just naive.

Did you flunk high school or is this a parody account?
Sellers always have incentive to keep the food good. Once you get a bad rep you don't make money because people stop buying form you. Logic 101.
Literally why Chipotle has experienced so many problems after their recent contamination incident. And Bluebell, who had to halt *all* ice cream production.
you just gave multiple examples of companies that should have been "clean" and still went and did stupid things. you contradicted yourself pretty hard. thanks for proving I'm right

This dude is stoned out of his mind:

That may be but that is besides my point that you can't depend on food preparers to always take the proper precautions as you stated.
sure dude I'm stoned. yet you ignore the simple fact that every time you open the news channel you hear about a restaurant or some other similar place that got closed or is suspected of doing something funny with the food and ingredients. this goes way beyond you being naive and gullible. every year we have huge food scandals all over the world.
why are you even trying to defend that random woman that sold food on facebook? she did something stupid and she got caught doing it. it's the same as police catching someone selling food on the street.

Except that she is the sole provider of these kids.

It's still irrelevant unless you want to show favoritism for her since she is the sole provider for 6. We already show too much favoritism as it is through child support.

Davis, you have no understanding of how competitive markets. You are mistaking this for monopolistic competition (which, in case you are wondering, is not at all the same things as a monopoly).
Your comments are continually the most ignorant posted on this entire site. I've been reading Techspot on and off for about 9 years (hey, when I went to college to get my econ degree!). I've been reading the comments for the last couple years. Every time I see you talk about markets or politics I cringe.
As others have stated: Regulations are necessary in protecting the pubic interest. As a defense attorney: 1) We probably haven't heard the full story; and, 2) if we have, she was overcharged (which is very common with many crimes -- stealing a $1 candy bar in NY will have you facing up to 1 year in jail!)
different animals have different bacteria and enzymes that help them digest food. dogs for example don't have enzymes in their saliva like humans.
if you want to know more about dogs just google "why do dogs eat poop"

I would do that, but I am concerned that when I run for President the NSA or Google (or are they the same??) will release my search results.
So, can humans eat their own feces and not get sick?

Bro, I've been a derivatives trader for five years and also happen to be college educated (business, 3.8 gpa).* Not only do I understand how competitive markets work, I know to make them work for me. When you can consistently pull thousands of dollars out of competitive markets on a daily basis *without* having to use sales copy as an edge or rely on corporate listing you on payroll, then you can talk to me about competitive markets.
Until then, you can continue to pontificate while I bank checks.
And I like the color blue. Now we both know a little more about each other.
Irrelevant. I said the law is, and I quote, "retarded." This has nothing to do with any of the things listed in your triggered meltdown.
Very simply, the law was conceived to protect consumers from bad business. Like all licensing regulations the idea is to prevent people from being harmed by incompetent and reckless actors, commercial enterprises in particular.
These laws and regulations do not exist to protect people from themselves in non-commercial circumstances. This is evidenced by the fact that I can regularly bake bread for coworkers, solicited or advertised on facebook, without my kitchen having to pass FDA inspection, among other things. It is also why I, as a trader, can trade unlicensed in a private account (personally owned or through a prop firm) but cannot do the exact same thing at a hedge fund or investment bank without a Series 9.
Magically, though, if I do the exact same thing under the agreement that said coworkers will compensate me $2 per loaf, it's now a public health concern and I'm unlicensed and therefore subject to a fine or jail time.
This is fundamentally and demonstrably stupid.
The fact that you cannot distinguish between commercial and non-commercial transactions and enterprises, and that you evidently cannot comprehend my earlier posts in spite of them being composed in simple language, should be more than sufficient to reliably inform every reader of this thread that your opinion can be safely dismissed at face value alone, because you quite literally don't have a quantum of a clue.
The law, as it is written, is a bad law. It needs to be rewritten to cover commercial enterprises exclusively, not people trying to make a buck cooking for friends.
*I only cite my education because you seem to think anybody cares.

It's fundamentally stupid how you can't see how there is a gray area betweeen commercial and non-commercial. How it's not black and white as you suggest. That this is why if the authorities didn't act then they would essentially be allowing a loophole to exist. One that (due to competitive markets) everyone would start exploiting and thereby defeat the purpose of regulation.
Derivative trading, and finance in general, is not the same thing as understanding economic theory. It has little baring to macro or monetary economics. From a marco perspective, read Minsky. For a finance perspective, read Schiller (or, for that matter, Eugene Fama). Saying a derivative trader must have an understanding of econ is like saying a mechanic understands engineering of cars.
Your misunderstanding of basic economics and your constant belief in conspiracy theories makes you completely uncredible.

Weakass response noted. Like I said, folks: dismissible at face value alone.

Well, the law isn't "moronic", is has a strong foundation in necessity.
Food recalls are frequent, and precipitated by sick consumers and government officials. Even the local hoagie shop must be inspected and licensed by city health inspectors. As you walk into any food establishment, you'll see a recent license to operate, which is legally required to be in plain sight, to inform customers of the establishment's state of compliance.
I'm not sure why people maintain the fantasy you can summarily start any business, and be exempt from any government regulation / oversight, because it's on the internet. More importantly, concerning the food industry, you do literally have the power of life and death over your customers, which makes it an absolute necessity for third party oversight.
You might get away with this crap for a local church one time bake sale, but if you're going to make a full time business out of it, you need permits and must submit to inspections.
Even the rinky-dink food cart outside your school(s) need a placard of compliance. So why do these biddies believe they're exempt from, "regulation"? (*)
(*) which is a euphemism for, "above the law".
