Inspection is just more big government regulation. Cut the red tape and let the market forces work.

"I am not comfortable with the self-inspection program," says New Orleans District B City Councilwoman Stacy Head.

This exemplifies the problem with government people who have no clue as to what they're talking about. Who will bet me a million bucks that this woman knows what Ohm's law is? What real electrician ever wanted to wire a house and then have it burn down? The reality is that the government red-tape encourages people to skip using a professional and do it themselves and that is where the trouble starts!

Self-inspections in New Orleans--this makes a great joke except for the wholesale violation of safety regulations that will occur--and the people who will be harmed as a result. Only in NO---legalized crime.

Most inspectors just inspect the permit to see if the tax (fee) has been paid.
It's revenue enhancement ... period.

Did you see this? Unbeleivable! Can you imagine staying at a "restored" hotel in that hellhole?

I wish everyone of these "nightmare in New Orleans" stories would be countered with a story of what is going right in other parts of the Gulf Coast.
