[QUOTE="Dave70968, post: 1905190, member: 13624"] Oklahoma has a long and sordid history of enacting regulations to benefit service providers at the cost of buyers. In fact, the SCOTUS case validating a state's authority to do so came from Oklahoma. In [I]Williamson v. Lee Optical[/I], 348 U.S. 483 (1955), SCOTUS upheld an Oklahoma law prescribing that fitting of glasses (not eye exams, just the physical fitting) only be done by an ophthalmologist or optometrist. Needless to say, that benefits the MD/OD community by putting lower-cost opticians out of business. Rent-seeking is alive and well in Oklahoma. [/QUOTE]
