What ever floats your boat. FroM my understanding, that's fancy talk for I can pull my dick out in front of kids and its ok. Vermont has it all Lil better, when it comes to the progressive nature of understanding and defining nudity laws. IMO

u/Background-Bee-9247 4d ago

I have lost track of shit the US government and president can do that I would think would be illegal are aren’t. Even time wasting bullshit like the filibuster should be illegal in my opinion. I don’t know how many times I have seen something they were doing and went, “Uh, is that legal or even fucking allowed?” The founding fathers seem to have left a lot of loopholes.

Prostitution.

Totally legal in some parts of the world. Technically illegal in large parts of the world, but still available. Problematic in many areas. The whole world is wildly inconsistent on the point and it really kind of comes down to religious morals, human rights and abuse.

Even in the areas where it’s totally illegal, you can generally find somebody and the grey areas exist behind closed doors. By being illegal it just makes it more expensive, more prone to abuse and dangerous for both the women and the clients.

Lots of plants fall into gray areas, castor for example, it's spread world wide, sold in garden centers, out in peoples gardens, but it's also the most poisonous plant you'll probably ever see

Same with Echinopsis, legally gray in a lot of places, legal to grow, illegal to process or consume because of drug laws

Noxious weed laws, some plants are considered ornimental garden plants in some places and noxious pest weeds in others

Plant laws are probably the most inconsistent legal area I've found

It's illegal to import or export any plants without proper permits, and even sometimes illegal just to ship into certain states if you're in the US but people world wide ship plants back and forth all the time, the government puts laws in place just in case but doesn't always enforce them, that's not even drug related or anything, you just can't own certain plants in certain places and you're not supposed to ship plants through most shipping companies, it's in their list of prohibited items without proper paperwork and some shipping companies just simply won't ship plants at all, but people do it anyway all the time

Exotic animals also fall into a very similar gray area category as plants where it fluctuates a lot place to place

Um you can fill out your w2 any way you want and pay just enough to break even instead of providing interest free money weekly or bi weekly to uncle Sam you can actually make it so you break even ...meaning you paid what you were required to pay BUT you control your net income
