Re: Code-change alert: Fire sprinklers in all new homes

Yes it is about money, another racket for the state (permits) and for the fitters (installation). Being forced to do unreasonable things by the state is not my definition of freedom, and when I have to pay for it, I call that racketeering. The tone of this article is obviously biased in favor of sprinklers. I used to really enjoy this magazine, however the shortening of articles and polarization of opinions caused me to cancel my subscription. A real shame because I used to immensely enjoy reading this periodical.
