The main problem is people who are scared of life happening when they're not looking. They are the ones that created the inflexible bureaucrats.
The law in many places, especially the US, has become a contemptible thing.
- bsder 6y ago> The law in many places, especially the US, has become a contemptible thing. And, yet, I have a friend who is an HVAC inspector for institutions (office building, care facilities, etc.). The stories he has of everybody trying to cheat the system are appalling. Nobody seals the HVAC properly until he shows up and fails them. Nobody isolates the rooms (these are CARE FACILITIES with contagious diseases) until he fails them. And then the times he has just basic stupidity (intake in a closet, intake next to garage or other combustion/carbon monoxide source, etc.) are beyond numerous. He has had only one case where he didn't immediately fail the building for absolutely gross violations of code. So, you can complain about the building codes, but the norm is that most of the people building are bad actors and the law is only thing keeping them even remotely in check.
- JoeAltmaier 6y agoStraw man. Surely care facilities deserve extra attention. But the average shop? Its the 'one size fits all' that's the entire issue.
- JoeAltmaier 6y agoBut sure, inspections are very valuable. And some kind of discretion would be great. Instead we have a 2" rule book.
