The business he works for is not located in Toledo. The City of Toledo has no legal authority for work done outside of Toledo. And his employer is licensed.
According to the New York Times, he also never completed an apprenticeship
Because he had not been working as an apprentice for the required 5 years
and does not belong to the plumber's union, which has endorsed Obama.
Why would he need to? Ohio is not a right to work State, but employers are not forced to institute a union shop if neither they nor the employees want it
On Thursday, he acknowledged that he does plumbing work even though he does not have a license.
Legally, because he works under the supervision of a licensed plumber.
Again, what this all about is because "Joe" exposed your Messiah for what he is, an unapologetic Marxist.
