[Vision2020] The Law Is

[cjs]

Dear Mr. Curley,

I sure wish laws were written to where I could exempt or allow myself to do anything I wish. 

Are you aware, that if you really take a look at things and I think the rest of the community ought to take a look at it, UoI is already in the bar business. They own the land that the mall sits on. They get a piece of the action. In fact - they are in the clothing business, hamburger business, radio shack business, restaraunt's with beer and wine business, flower business, tanning, etc. They are landlords. 

Capitolism at it's finest. TAX FREE!

Phil
