I’d love to see something like this happen:
I lived in Alaska for a bit during the mid-Seventies. The State Health Dept., in their infinite wisdom, had passed a rule that all gas station/restaurants must comply with the strictest health standards. Not a bad idea on paper.
Most of these places, however, were mom and pop places where winter travelers could get something warm to eat/drink while the car was serviced. It was a service to the Alaskan traveler indeed.
So, instead of complying, all 14 places between Anchorage and the Homer, just shut down.
They reopened after the public delivered their response to their elected officials, and the Health Dept. “reconsidered”.
The Atlas Diners shrugged huh.
