Sounds like we need a scalpel, not napalm. For every silly/stupid regulation removed, there will be 100 important regulations as collateral. And then we'll see real collateral.
- kragen 2y agoWhy are you even mentioning silly/stupid regulations? And what do you mean by "collateral"?
- delecti 2y agoNot who you were talking with, but: You linked the shoelace restriction. That seems like an obvious example of "silly/stupid". By collateral, death. Most regulations are written in blood. Tearing out a bunch of Chesterton fence regulations will result in death.
- ty6853 2y agoWe eliminated most planning and all building codes for owner/builders in my county (granted not federal, but one of the most cited 'written in blood' regulations). The end result was none of the apocalyptic predictions. People build whatever housing they can afford rather than buying more housing safety at the expense of less healthcare and food, education etc. When we deregulated, people made their own safety calculus and it worked. And it's why I have a home.
