I can't think of a better civil organization than the NFPA to illustrate why private interest and enterprise ALWAYS beat government regulation.

Hmmm, a write up on the history of the NFPA would make a good FR post.

The NFPA is bought and paid for by the manufacturers and special interests.

When Masterguard heat detectors got themselves approved as a life safety device, they lost my last bit of respect.

If you give the NFPA money, they will approve anything, irrespective of what it cost others.
