    Government issues the business licenses. Seems like someone needs to be reminded who has who by the balls.

          That’s exactly right, and it’s clearly why they intentionally decided to let the businesses have guns and gave them all the other rights in the constitution, knowing they would someday be declared to be actual “people” by a series of what must be the stupidest and most destructive legal precedents ever set in the history of humanity.

      Yup. Government has businesses by the balls.

      But corruption exists.

      Therefore the goverment only ever really pulls small businesses and normal people by the balls, while the big businesses and uber rich (money heavyweights) get to pull the government by the tongue. Sometimes even the balls as well.

      Just as Supply Side Jesus intended.

        Yup. Government has businesses by the balls.

        I don’t think that they do anymore. Not in the US.

        The opposite is true here.

      State governments issue business licenses. This is how we will kill Citizen’s United.

      Hawaii first, Montana next.
