When do I get my cut of "Joe Plumber's" money?
Never, unless Joe starts netting more than $250,000 year off
of his plumbing business, which seems unlikely after
listening to Joe. However, if he *does* reach it, I'm going
into plumbing right away.

If the small tax increase he'll be exposed to after he
reaches $250,000, until he gets up into the $1 million/year
category, really is enough to keep him from buying the
business, then Joe doesn't have enough behind him to go into
business at all.

A. Joe's real first name is not Joe.
B. He's a registered Republican.
And your point is what? He asked a perfectly valid question of
a candidate for POTUS.

As more and more comes out on "Joe," he's going to become
another embarrassment to the McCain campaign. Hell, he's not
even a plumber.
Sure he's a plumber. Your problem with him is that he isn't a
union plumber.

He's unlicensed, apparently. He's not a plumber. Anyone can call
himself or herself a plumber, even someone like you. That doesn't
make him a plumber. Plumbing is a licensed trade.
He doesn't have to be licensed he works under the direction of a
licensed plumber.

Are you saying he is enrolled in some sort of recognized
apprenticeship program?

Perhaps you'd hire him to work on your house. I wouldn't. I
wouldn't hire an unlicensed electrician or plumber. Of course,
dirtbags like you have no respect for skilled workers. Skilled
workers in these fields are licensed or are working towards a license.
Do you know if your MD's graduated at the bottom of their class? Did
they barely meet the standard for their license requirements?

Why aren't automotive mechanics licensed?



The licensing of plumbers is under discussion here. Try to stay with
it, hey?


Are those Amish carpenters union and licensed?


The Amish crew I have hired is not unionized. The building trades unions
and the contractors for whom they work around here do not organize
single-family homebuilders or work for individual homeowners.

The Amish contractor, however, *is* licensed.

When I built in the cabinetry in the lower level of my house, I had the
electrical and plumbing work done by *licensed* electricians and
plumbers. The plumber took about an hour, since the rough-in was already
there, but the electrical wiring took about a half day and the guy who
did it was a master's master on house work.

Um! you did show us pictures of the cabinets along with the boxes they
came in, with the made in China stamps all over them.
