There was a time when I thought of regulations as progress killers, but I find myself shifting on that and getting nervous every time I hear about self-driving tech.
It's great stuff, but I really do not want my family to be the brave eggs we had to crack to get to the omelet of a driverless future.
I now _like_ that someone somewhere has a book listing chemicals that aren't allowed to be shipped on an airplane, and I wish there were a way to jump right to that mired, bureaucratic point in car tech.
Similarly, I used to view lawsuits as a menace to free enterprise, but I'm a tiny bit comforted by the fact that everyone working on car tech knows they're extremely exposed to litigation if they aren't diligent.
The idea of code from Apple or Google driving on my roads is switching me from classical liberalism to "help me, big government!"
