I’m embarrassed to be a resident

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania has decided you need an auctioneers license (which is apparently hard to get) in order to sell goods on e-bay. Sure. What next? Will I need a doctorate and malpractice insurance from the state if I post a comment on WebMD?

Even better, in an attempt to enforce the inane law, PA has chosen someone to make a spectacle of. A woman who started selling items on e-bay so she could remain at home with her daughter, who has a brain tumor. Wow.

Yet another lame attempt to profit (in the form of auctioneer licenses this time) from something even though you have added zero value to it.

Come to think of it, I wonder if the states will get to charge taxes on top of the bandwidth usage charge that Time Warner wants to institute?
