I've been in this business long enough to know that point estimates are always wrong. A proper estimate is a range with a confidence interval. When forced to do a fixed bid, you have to raise the price even higher to the upper end of t

There is an argument to be made that licensing in general is a poll tax. There is an equal protection argument against not recognizing permits issued to out of State residents who meet the same standards except for residency. Sadly, I am no

Unbelievable capricious enforcement of a may issue permitting regime, asking for and receiving bribes! For those who don't know, in many other States a carry permit must be issued by the issuing authority unless the applicant is disqua
