State of Maine Interfering with Law

Obey the Black Robes?

A former lawyer for O.J. Simpson and Patty Hearst has been denied the "privilege" of practicing law.  This decision was handed down by people calling themselves "Maine Supreme Court".

These "court" people seem to believe that they can deny another human being from practicing law.

Regardless of the edicts passed down from on high, the right of residents in Maine to voluntarily enter into contracts with lawyer F. Lee Bailey super cedes the "courts" ruling.

The Government wants you to believe in the myth that they are "Supreme" and they create "law".  In reality law existed long before any state and currently exists in spite of interference by the state.

From Don Boudreaux and Russ Roberts:

Legislation is consciously designed rules, enforced with threat of force.

Law is emergent patterns of behavior that is incorporated into people's expectations.

The bottom line is that Bailey or any of his potential clients have no obligation to obey the commands of those who wear black robes and sit on elevated benches.

Is Practicing Medicine a "Right"?

Don Boudreaux has written a great article at Cafe Hayek titled "Who Licenses the Licensers?".  One important quote in the piece:

People are not generally stupid when spending their own money on themselves and their loved ones.

The right to offer medicine and healing services is literally a matter of life and death.  The state simply wants to promote that it is a privilege to practice medicine.

These propagandists are incorrect.  Doctors and nurses don't need to ask an agent of the state for permission to offer healthcare services to consenting adults.
