I don't think the government should ban gas stoves, but I don't want my neighbor running his own gas lines that don't meet the building codes. Can we agree that there is a grey area which covers where lines should be drawn in terms of personal rights vs. infringing the rights of others? It is certainly the crux of our system of government. We obviously disagree where the line is in this particular case, and I totally respect your vigilance. I do take issue with your statement "having a swimming pool is never illegal" -- that is certainly incorrect, at least by definition of the building codes in the jurisdiction I live in. But I agree, we are surrounded by slippery slopes.
