[Public Draft. Expect more on this topic.]
If a person is not harming another person, and would not under normal circumstance be harmful, then that service should not need a license.
Services that should not need licensing:
- Kids selling lemonade would not normally harm anyone.
- Kids shoveling snow would not normally harm anyone.
- Adults making and selling food would not normally harm anyone.
- Adults rubbing my food for a price would not normally harm anyone.
- People building or repairing items would not normally harm anyone.
- Growing food in your own property, to sell to other people, would not normally harm anyone.
- Providing spiritual guidance and counseling would not normally harm anyone.
- Providing any other goods or service that does not normally harm another person.
Services that should need a license:
- Waging war
- Incarcerating people
- Killing people outside of war
- Ignoring the state (Or federal, for US) constitution
Since the state has the monopoly on violence, extortion, and murder, the state should be required to be licensed by the super majority people who are also not paid by the state.
Better yet. Get rid of the state.
