Default The problem is the extremes.

You can have too little regulation, and end up with the "Dust Bowl' and the Great Depression.

You can have a measured amount of regulation,and end up with the National Park System.

Some regulation is required and desired. The founders took the concept of "The Commons" from old English law. Commons belonged to everyone. (IE "Boston Commons" ) Winnipesaukee, belongs to all of us. We all have a stake in it's careful management.

The challenge is, where is the line between too much and too little regulation and/or management.

For me, I'd rather have a little "too much" regulation and healthy intelligent debate on limiting the regulations than get too far down the road of under regulation and find our beautiful lake destroyed

Just my Humble Opinion.

Hmmm.... IMHO, once a law or conviction is made, good luck in trying to get it repealed (or pardoned).

Err on the side of too little regulation and apply more if needed. We see what too much government can do, don't let it do the same to the Lakes Region.
