4 edits | Government run amok? This is just another silly "by-the-book" reading of the rules. If the law (made by legislators elected by us) is bad then it should be changed. If the rule (made by bureaucrats not accountable to the public) is bad then they should be challenged and made to be reasonable. Putting fiber across existing structures shouldn't trigger the protection rules.
I think we're becoming a nation of laws without common sense. The poor kid that got suspended for 3 days for buying candy in school is just the latest example.
Surely we can write laws that protect what needs to be protected without causing unintended harm. In our society where someone will sue anyone for anything makes common sense difficult because by definition common sense is subjective. Still, we should be able to be reasonable in our laws (rules). |
