Not a lot of comments about the tyranny of regulations in this thread. Surprised there isn't more push-back against a law that is almost entirely regulations imposed on businesses and travelers.
- Simulacra 8y agoAirlines, unfortunately, seem to be one of those industries that if you didn't make them do something with regulations, they would never do it. Like the shrinking seats, beating people, dragging them off planes, etc.

First, I was told all regulations are bad, this nuance is only coming up now In response to hypocrisy being pointed out. Second, which industries have historically implemented regulations without a legal requirement? The banking, insurance, tech, healthcare and energy industries all seem to fight regulation pretty hard.
