'The Tyranny of Details'
City and state officials aross the country have gotten regulation-happy by attempting to ban or restrict or limit voluntary exchanges. Dale Franks now has a nice round-up of various examples. Here's one ridiculous case:
Do you think your dental hygienist or optician is hot? Wanna ask 'em out? If you live in Washington, then too bad. The new state professional regulations prohibit it. And no fair switching from Pearle Vision Center to Lenscrafters to use a different optician. Because you can't go out with them for two years after utilizing them as your "health care provider".
