Quote from article: "In response they cast spells on the country's president and government." .... Hahahaha! :lol:

Still, if everyone else pays taxes, I don't see why they shouldn't have to also.

Although I think they should pay their taxes like everyone else, I think casting spells on their

president and government is just too funny for words. :w00t:

You can't throw them in jail for getting it wrong. That would be like throwing the weatherman in jail for getting it wrong.

They take your money and predict your future. If they make up some nonsense which you beleive to be true,then at the very least you should get your money back. If you put your life savings on the wrong horse prediction ..........

those who pay for predictions are taking a gamble, and they ought to know that. it's no one's fault but their own if they waste their money. that's like saying a casino ought to give you your money back if you don't win.

Now I find this extremely funny. It was supposed to warm up and it's 5F outside.

Go to jail, go directly to jail. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200.

I would suggest the Romanian law the article is talking about would fit your criteria.

So, you have been shown it. What next?

Just means they'll get more and more vague with their prophecies.

That's a good point...they will be afraid to go out on a limb with any impressions they get. And once the predictions start to become more and more vague- it will be a mess trying to prove whether or not they are accurate...lol.

so then we should definitely hold all weather men accountable for giving inaccurate forecasts too. a hefty fine for not telling me i need to bring a rain coat to work.

There's predicting the weather, and then there's telling people where to place bets and how to live their life and getting paid for it.

Besides, weathermen have a better hit rate than these supposed precogs.

Look at it this way. Without weathermen we'd never know when to bring a raincoat. Now we know sometimes, and sometimes we find ourselves sweating in our raincoat because a 'sudden change' came in.

Is this some way for the government to test the 'accuracy' of... of... ummmm... how do I put it...? I don't know, a way for government to test the accuracy of 'sorcery'? How are fortune tellers going to cover their butts in that situation?
