| Message | This legislation has no great perceivable benefits, which leads us to believe that the OSTF is simply attacking local government authority for their hatred of federalism and nothing more. |

| Message | Nah, food licensing has been shown to have the effects stated in the description. It's pretty well-documented. This of course doesn't mean it works for every industry but when it does it should be done. |
