I don't see the problem. The laws are there to make sure that the consumer gets protected.

Yes, again, protecting the consumer.

Sounds like you need a loan, a rather small one. Perhaps you can use your computer as collateral, or pawn it.

This netbook wouldn’t fetch $75. Everyone I know is broke. I do not own much. And $250 right now might as well be $1000 next to what I can sell or borrow.

The van needs brakes an oil change and the bearings are going out in the water pump.
​
I'm not selling my tools, because I would get pennies out of the cost of them to replace them.
​
But all that is beside the point. The law is asking $200 just for me to sign a paper saying if I get hurt no one is liable. And that’s what I’m discussing.

They should be demanding more.

If you are going to do work, you should be bonded for that work.
