For Every Effect, There Is a Cause. 0
When I worked for the railroad, I was surrounded by safety rules.
There was a rule of the day, there was a Safety Training Department, and there were rule books for every craft and class of employee. Safety was drummed into us day after to day.
The rule book for office employees was over 20 pages long. Among others, it included a rule that, when walking and carrying a hot beverage, the hot beverage should be carried well away from one’s body.
Seems silly, doesn’t it? Except that every safety rule represented an accident, an injury, or a death.
The same goes for government regulations.
