The Government of Louisiana sure does!Yeah in an effort to allow the cops to track the sale of stolen goods, pawn-shops and second-hand shops are now required to ask for an ID and other forms of identification when selling second hand goods. Also they're not allowed to accept cash in transactions. Ironbite-Small Government in action eh?

Also they're not allowed to accept cash in transactions. Ummm.....My dollar here says "this note is legal tender for all debts, public and private". So I don't think that state can do that..... |

I think 'big government vs small government' is a deliberately fake dichotomy. I want good government.

Umm, in my part of Australia, we're supposed to give 100 points of ID: usually a photo ID, an ID with our address, and something with a signature.
The cash thing is bullshit though.

The ID part I can understand, but no cash? Seriously?

Slight spoilers:
He got sick, but was indignant: if life gives you lemons, you don't make lemonade. You get revenge. You get your engineers to develop a lemon you can use to go burn life's house down.

The Three Pillars of Aperture Science
As laid out by Cave Johnson
Pillar one: Science without results is just witchcraft.
Pillar two: Get results or you're fired.
Pillar three: if you suspect a coworker of bein' a witch, report them immediately. I cannot stress that enough. Witchcraft will not be tolerated.

Before the Wright Brothers invented the airplane, anyone wanting to fly anywhere was required to eat 200 pounds of helium.
