"I admit the market is saturated." Isn't one of the general laws of starting out on a new business venture to NOT target something that has effectively reached max saturation? Go after a business where there is a need for growth and capture that opportunity...don't go into something that is 'saturated'...to use his own words.

I'm willing to bet that the big guys will be the first ones crying foul and calling for police to shut down the little guys who can't fork out the $$...watch for it!!

Yeah buddy!! Just digging that whole a bit deeper, and sweetening the pot for the main financers of the PLP campaign. Let's take a vote to legalize and regulate...vote no...screw it, we are going to do it anyways...so now that we have all agreed we are going to regulate and tax the web shops, let's make some REALLY crazy laws to where you already have to be one of the big players to even consider qualifying for a license to legalize your now illegal operations...brilliant!! i am sure that the powers that be...Flowers et al are just laughing all the way to the bank...they can meet the requirements easily, and then push to wipe out all the illegal guys who can't reach that high yet. Pure genius!! This government got it going from all angles!!

I'll take Wulff Road English for $500 Alex. At that level in an editing/editorial position, I think what he brings to the table...using the Queen's English...has some serious merit. ;-)

I've known that to happen before LOL...figured I'd get the silly jab out of the way first in a joke format, you know people are going to come in with their guns loaded on the whole work permit issue and make a whole bunch of non-sensical noise.

The Privy Council...this one is for general crazy. The irony of it is, we cuss and grumble when death sentences go to the Privy Council...and we abide by what they say and no one gets hanged. This case goes to the Privy Council, we get a favourable ruling, which is then just overturned back in our own court systems. While I am GLAD there was a ruling by the Privy Council in this case...anything to try to stop the dredging, I don't care who by, I'm for it...but seriously, we need to do away with the Privy Council. We abide by it when we want, over rule them when we don't, it's just another silly layer of legal fees and confusion. With the exception of delaying the disasterous dredging for 1 week, what 'good' has the Privy Council done for us? Not really a rhetorical question...if someone has some case studies in which the Privy Council was a definite good cause...let's hear it.

Most definitely, I want to have on my receipt the breakdown of what portion of the cost of my bill is attributed to VAT. 100% a must.
