Imagine for a moment that you are a magician who performs at churches, schools, and even people's homes. In one of your acts you employ a rabbit. It's the only animal you use in your act. You have no employees.
Sounds like a perfectly innocent small business, doesn't it? The kind of business that you'd think would be completely free of government regulation and paperwork.
Wait a minute. You must be thinking that you live in the old America, the one founded by the liberty-loving Founding Fathers. That's not today's nanny-state America, the one enabled by low information voters. No, siree!
In today's America, that magician has to file a “disaster plan” for his bunny. It takes eight pages of bureaucratese just to describe what that disaster plan must contain.
Yes, I'm serious.
