I think he should be licensed he’s is doing a dental procedure. He doesn’t need full on license but something like PA doctors assistant or midwife training. Putting on a girl would need a good clean environment and someone that takes precautions against bodily fluids and such.
Not another I'm a slave to the evil government argument. Please leave this country. Go to Cambodia, it's really free over there. You can do mounds of heroine and die in a grass hut at your own free leisure.
law
lô/Submit
noun
1.
the system of rules that a particular country or community recognizes as regulating the actions of its members and may enforce by the imposition of penalties.
Why Cambodia? Why not Somalia?
Why should he, or anyone else, have to "leave this country" because we disagree with government overreach?
natural law
noun
a principle or body of laws considered as derived from nature, right reason, or religion and as ethically binding in human society.
Two parties form a consensual agreement but that ain't good enough for Daddy government. I wonder how they found out about his nefarious activity? Probably spied on him via his iPhone or a drone.
Keep voting and paying those taxes my friends. You never know if you have an Allen Turner in your neighborhood.
If you think people should be able to make grills without government approval, you should just move to Somalia and live in your anarchist utopia.
It's not about that though. It's about the rights of two individuals to contract with one another without government involvement. Of course, the problem is once you start to venture into territory that is already heavily regulated you can run into problems like this. But honestly, it should be up to the consumer. And in the end, if he ever did anything wrong, he'd be liable. Perhaps instead of trying to fine him and take him to jail they should require him to carry workman's compensation and general liability insurances. If he could find a company to cover him. Either way, I understand where the OP is coming from with this. It may seem like a small issue, but that's how we lose our freedom and ability to engage in commerce. A little at a time.
The regulation of this area of personal services is due to the government's compelling state interest in public health and safety. And the reason there is a well-defined, efficient, effective scheme for training and licensing is to further that interest. BTW because of that, the courts are not clogged with malpractice litigants who will bring claims that can only be adjudicated by experts...the same ones that are on the licensing authority that already exists. So you accomplish nothing by allowing a free-for-all in these areas, and you wind up with detrimental effects and costs on society.
Think of it this way: If G-Money makes a grill for Heavy-D and Heavy gets a staph infection that lands him in the ICU for three weeks, then which of these ghetto morons is going to make the health care system whole for the cost of saving his worthless life? How does allowing G-Money and Heavy-D to enter into a personal services contract that creates a high probability for personal injury, without government involvement , benefit society at large? And then we have to empanel a jury and spend the resources of the state on civil litigation so Heavy can be made whole too?
If these two were involved in some more productive and useful occupation that enables or improves oral health - like a dental professional, it would be a different story, as long as the service provider was established to be well-trained and competent to safely deliver that service.

Yeah, I'll gladly die on that hill.
Yah, but you don't have the freedom to consent to engage in criminal activity..that's called conspiracy.

here ya go. Except good luck selling dental ornamentation to a bunch of slackers that just sit around chewing gat all day, when they're not out hatching their ill-conceived pirate raids.
Not a good location for a capitalist, given there is nothing to protect you from being ripped off, murdered, enslaved, etc.
Voting for less government is a contradiction. It's like eating two large pizzas and drinking a diet coke because you're watching your calories.
You're right, we need 1000's of more laws and regulations. Good call.
