He's right of course, we have just had a law passed in Brisbane that if you leave your rubbish bin out on the street for more than 48 hours you can be fined $150.00.
What feeble mealy mouthed twerp thinks this shit up? More importantly how do we stop the never ending barrage of new rules?

It is part of a cultural paradigm in which any tragedy that befalls us is not just the result of bad luck or carelessness or simple human error but is the fault of inadequate regulation. There is this fantasy that with enough government intervention we can create a safety utopia
