"The bill was killed in committee by Republicans fearing "regulation" of any private businesses"
Would you want the government regulating your business? Tell the whole story here not just the part you want to see.

I definately dont want the government in "my business". Unless I decide to open a treatment center,its none of their business. However,if someone decides to open a care facility.They should be
monitered.Look at what the sicko's in Maine have done to you and I,as a direct result of no monitering. They got away with their crimes as a result of this.Are you saying they and others should not be regulated?
Selling plumbing supplies or whatever is different than caring for children. At least thats how I see it.

Yes programs should be regulated and yes they definately should be regulated. However this should be a separate bill and not open the door to governmental regulation of all private business. As far as Maine is concerned I've lived here only 7 years and what I've seen is it is one of the most over regulated states in the country. The real problem in Maine is that there is so much beauracratic bullshit going on that the left hand rarely knows what the right hand is doing and thats how the more fucked up programs survive. It's hard to believe that Maine is the second highest taxed state in the nation yet it has no oversight in how public monies are spent on these shit holes.

I dont know what makes you think Maine is so overregulated. As you know, money controls politics and the money is out to "protect" busisness's from being regulated with the enthusiasm that you wish went into "protecting" from torture. With campain donations (bribes) lobbying (bribes) pacs and "independant "public interest groups (bribes) moneyied interests keep their interests safe from ovesight
In the end, public money or no what keeps the torure of children going is the complete lack of regulation and will to enforce legislation. These people need to be policed. In fact.. these people just need to be sent back to the shadows. What right does anyone ever to kidnap another human being?

Why not just take a look at a little entity known as Dept. of Professional and Financial Regulation. Now you might think with a name like that it monitors programs such as Elan for example. Not a chance. Nope for that you may have to take a peek at DHHS (Dept. of Health and Human Services), OSA (Office of Substance Abuse) and of course let's not forget the Dept. of Education, after all Elan does profess itself to be a school. Now amongst these four separate entities who do you suppose would be the watchdog over Elan? Your guess is as good as mine. As far as money being plundered around the state let's not for a moment forget who controls the purse strings, yep you guessed it, the Democrats.
