At some point in your life you may find that there's a tax lein against you that you didn't know about. I know because it happened to me. When you find out about it, what you do is: You go to the tax collectors office, pay the tax due and follow-up to make sure the lein has been removed.
You'll learn these things when you grow up.
there aren't very many blue-collar workers left.
actually, i do believe you are incorrectI wonder if anyone notices the irony that because of McCain that Joe the Plumber may not be able to be a Plumber anymore?
Since you know, where he works you need to be a licensed Plumber and he isn't.

some doJoe is an apprentice plumber. Why is it you guys don't get it. He has filed to take his master plumbing examination. Look up Ohio--state board of plumbing & you will see that Joe had to do several years as an apprentice--meaning working for a plumbing company. This particular company he plans to buy. After so many supervised (working on the job) years he is eligible to take his masters plumbing examination.
You didn't really think that electricians & plumbers go to universities to get their electrical & plumbing licenses, did you?
some do
but more to trade schools

Exactly, but I guess Oreo failed to see the irony in my comment.
Those blinders can do that sometimes. He's not actually considered a licensed Plumber, so McCain could actually cost him his living.
thats why i said "some do"NO,NO,NO--I am a licensed electrical contractor in the State of Colorado. I have been in my own business for the last 30 years. The only trade school that I have ever seen is a 3 month course--that basically scrapes the surface of what an electrical apprentice is. It's always on the job training. There are no 4 year college or university courses that trains electricians & plumbers.
For example: Wireman license--2 years documented residential on the job training. Journeyman's license-- 2 years documented residential & 2 years commercial on the job training. Masters license-- after passing the Journeyman's license another year to be spent in job foreman supervision experience & documented by the licensed electrical contractor.
Plumbing licenses are exactly the same format.

HOLLAND, Ohio (AP) Joe the Plumber said Thursday he doesn't have a license and doesn't need one. Joe Wurzelbacher, better known as Joe the Plumber, the nickname Republican John McCain bestowed on him during Wednesday's presidential debate, said he works for a small plumbing company that does residential work. Because he works for someone else, he doesn't need a license, he said.
But the county Wurzelbacher and his employer live in, Lucas County, requires plumbers to have licenses. Neither Wurzelbacher nor his employer are licensed there, said Cheryl Schimming of Lucas County Building Regulations, which handles plumber licenses in parts of the county outside Toledo
Wurzelbacher, who voted in the Republican primary and indicated he backed McCain
Wurzelbacher said he was surprised that his name was mentioned so many other times.
"That bothered me. I wished that they had talked more about issues that are important to Americans," he told reporters gathered outside his home.
Wurzelbacher said Obama's tax plan wouldn't affect him right now, because he doesn't make $250,000. "But I hope someday I'll make that," he said.
thats why i said "some do"
not all
Oreo, the post by Modbert seems to indicate you may have been mistaken. Perhaps it is unusual in that it is the county requiring the license, but man up if you were wrong.

My Comment: Joe the plumber does not need a plumbing license if he is working for a licensed plumbing contractor, & is actually working with another licensed plumber--who would be his supervisor on the job. So Joe is correct in his statement, as Joe is an apprentice plumber:
My Comment on the Lucas county statement: Of course, the county requires that plumbers be licensed. All counties do. If Joe were working by himself, without supervision from another licensed plumber, he would be required to have his own license. As stated Joe is studying to take his plumbing license examination now. Joe has reached the end of his apprenticeship & is now eligible to take the plumbing examination. Once he passes the examination he will be issued a license.
Well that would requiring admitting one was wrong, Republicans for the most part don't like to do that.
If Oreo does, I'll give Oreo credit for saying as such.
However, I think that's why this thread stopped getting responses.
