Oh who said it? (Some type of oil guy... Someone brought it up one day here, and I saved it.)
"If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur."
-Red Adair
Maybe put it on the back of a buisiness card....
Or make it really in the best interest to hire a professional tradesman, lobby for B&P code that says if you're not licensed in a trade, you have to licensed as a hack, make the cost of this new class of license $50, and have "Proffessional HACK" in font twice the size of your name on any document or advertizing, with a fine of $50K for each offense found. A stack of cards could cost ya $1M. Make anyone who hires an unlicensed hack liable for $50K! Do ad campaign that says, "If you're gonna hire a "hack", you cheap SOB, make sure he's a professionaly licensed one, or you get fined $50,000!" Of course you would have to back that up with jack-booted goose-stepping enforcement, to really scare the day-lights out of people.

Think of all the lowered taxes because of all the hacks out there...
