ZDNET has a story tonight on how some B & M middlemen are pushing for local laws to prevent certain online selling.

Part of the story is included below which speaks about specific targeting of eBay sellers. Have a nice day (before they are all gone).

"Auctioneers in New Hampshire, North Carolina and Tennessee have pressured their respective state officials to take on eBay, the Web's most popular auction site, by enacting or considering laws that require sellers to pay auctioneer registration fees to the state."

Cutting out the middlemen is part of the efficiency of the internet.

Ignorance should be outlawed, but again, the politicians would be voting to put themselves all be behind bars.
