Enjoy using software? Are you creative and have a knack for design? Then you may want to consider a career as a patent designer or illustrator. Patent illustrators work with inventors to determine what they’re trying to create and turn in into a drawing. Drawings of the invention are required by law in order for someone to apply for patent. Patent offices have strict rules to follow, so patent illustrators must keep current on what the drawings need to include and how they should be designed and presented. To be accepted by the patent examiner’s office, it is highly recommended that drawings for inventions be done electronically. Most drawings (almost 90%) designed by non-professionals are rejected due to patent regulations and requirements not being followed, so it’s worth the investment to hire a patent illustrator. Patent drawings are very complex and detailed, and can be difficult for someone not in that field to understand. The drawings contain a variety of features, such as drawing identification, graphic forms, view, scale, shading, symbols, legends and arrows. A formal college education is not always required to become a patent illustrator, although it helps to have a strong background drafting, art and design. They must be very creative, highly skilled with computer software and detail oriented. Good illustrators use drawing software, such as Solid Works or CAD, to create detailed drawings quickly. They must keep current with patent law and requirements. They also must be able to work well with clients and determine their needs. Patent illustrators earn around $60,000 to 70,000 per year, depending on company size, location and experience level. Many work from home as freelancers, and can charge $35 to $100 per sheet. Career growth is steady, as more and more people look to inventions as a way to make money. However, there are many classes and instruction books that teach inventors how to create their own drawings, and many opt to go that route to save money.
There is no correlation whatsoever between formal education and patent approval.
For seventh graders, drawings to represent limited government could include: 1. A small, simple house to represent the limited role of government in citizens' lives. 2. A scale with balanced weight on both sides to show the importance of checks and balances in limiting government power. 3. A group of people standing together with a few individuals holding smaller flags to depict the idea of individual freedoms protected by limited government.
The level of government with the most power in the constitution is the Federal Government, followed by the state and then local government.

Funds that one level of government receives from another level of government.
There were State patent laws in Australia prior to Federation in 1901. After Federation the Federal rather than the State governments assumed responsibility for passing laws on patents
How does the government encourage an increased level of productivity
I am assuming by level, you mean level of government. There is no distinction between government on a national level and government on a federal level. The federal level of government is the highest tier of government because its central to the nation. It represents a union of states. Those union of states form a nation. So you see how the two terms are interchangable, and can be used synonymously. The federal government is government on a NATIONAL level.
For the most part that is at the City level,although some counties have Mayors.
