I laughed this a.m. early hearing Adams say "this will put money back into taxpayers' pockets." And where do those payments come from? Taxpayers' pockets.

Kind of like when Dominion won the lawsuit against Fox and it was just a pants pocket switch.

So essentially they are paying themselves to get screwed. What a mess

Reminds me of this Married with Children episode....

Al deduces what the reason for Peggy's big checks are

Al:

Peg, why did you not sell the cosmetics?

Peg:

Well, my friends decided they were not as good as other cosmetics.

Al:

OK, fine. So why in the world would you buy them yourself?

Peg:

To get the commission checks!

Al gives strained look of rage

Al:

You see Peg, when you buy off yourself you get less coming in than what you owe. In the shoe business lingo we call that...SENDING YOUR HUSBAND ROCKETING TO THE POORHOUSE! How much do you owe?

Peg{sheepishly}:

Minus the commission checks?

Al:

Yes, Peg.

Peg:

$627.

Al{sternly}:

Well, looks like we will have to keep up the part-time job until the debt is retired.

Scene shifts to Burger Trek. An improperly-wrapped hamburger is sent out a chute to a customer's tray

Captain:

Did not make the noise, Bundy!

Kitchen. Peg is now working at Burger Trek instead of Al

Peg {on microphone}:

Whoosh!

Forgot about that show! My hubby loved that show, it got on my nerves, but nevertheless, it would never get made today.

No, worse, I bet: wait until they want the 'guests' to leave - nope; it's now their domicile, and you have to start eviction proceedings against them. IANAL, but that's what I'd be worried about.
