That's one advantage of living where I do. We don't have building permits. Maybe for commercial property but for residence and farms, no...


Why is that an advantage?

Because people are responsible for their own destiny?
If Tim's house burns down, why is that anybody else's business?

How about the insurance company that has to pick up the tab?
How about a future buyer?
How about a fireman who while performing his job is killed by the
failure of under-spec'd products or techniques?

firemen take that risk daily. fires ignite by a faulty whatever, even when new buildings are up to code.

It happens.
