    Do people ask to feel the bottom of your feet?

    Article: Statehouse Update By Ahcuah

    What are they trying to do outlaw bare feet?? Whenever they pass new legislation someone loses a little freedom. I suffered from foot fungus for 45 years, however after going barefoot just over a year I have been totally cured. Would I have to get a doctors prescription to go barefoot?
