After all who gave authority to Crapita to collect a levy for owning a TV which is higher than the cost of the TV ?<br /><br />How did this private company get to use the criminal law ?<br /><br />It is the extension of State Sanctions to agencies and private contractors which becomes even more arbitrary such as Crapita accessing police records by professionals forced to buy Certificates of Good Standing to be able to work for a living serving persons who themselves may have criminal records ie schoolchildren, persons in care......but the professional does not know this.<br /><br />The chaotic state of modern life is due to third-rate individuals trying to be all-important having done nothing in their own rather mediocre livesTOmTOmnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8861279106331108648.post-90876303560086571772011-06-07T00:18:28.922-07:002011-06-07T00:18:28.922-07:00TGM: All assistance welcomed!
