Intrusive, expensive government regulations have no place in a free nation.

But they have those regulations - a lot of good they did!

It’s incompetent and corrupt administrators that’s the problem.

When your enemy is making a blunder, get out of his way.

I will never have sympathy for the enemies of this country again, foreign or domestic.

The issue is NOT regulation, but who regulates? When government regulates, there is no choice, and no alternative. There is only compliance. There is only compulsion. When a person politely declines to comply because the regulation is unreasonable, there is only deadly force.

In other circumstances, insurance companies regulate with a far greater level of compliance than any government agency can attain. Aviation is a great example, where a pilot may legally fly many airplanes without any extra training but where the insurance company will impose a requirement for comprehensive training and signoff.

Lastly, such a question ignores the basic human responsibility to no put yourself at unnecessary risk. There have been other fires at nightclubs where a lot of people died. But do we ever warn people to be aware of the hazards of a public venue? No we don’t. We say, well we have government regulation and so I don’t have to ever worry. And we assume that government never fails to do its job thoroughly and without bias or corruption.
