Based on some of the folks I see posting online, inhaling lead paint dust
does seem to be a bad idea.

it's just another bull**** law that there is no way to enforce. I'll

Don't worry about the government enforcing the law, worry about the
homeowner who sues you. If you look up lawsuits over contractors who didn't
handle remodels on buildings with asbestos, you'll wonder whether ignoring
the lead paint law is really such a smart idea.

I didn’t vote for the law and would not have if they had asked me but
seeing that it’s another reason for me to charge more and make more
money, why not.
