I searched for legislation on building inspections proposed in FL and other states after this happened. So far, none has been passed.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology is still investigating what caused the 13-story, 135-unit building to partially crumble in the middle of the night, a review that could take years.

State legislatures seem to be leaving safety concerns to the private sector - requirements imposed by mortgage lenders, insurance companies, and condo industry groups.

That slippery slope reminds me of the one in “Ya Got Trouble” from the Music Man.

John Oliver did a great report about utility companies, why services are so expensive while maintenance is neglected, why some are hindering adoption of alternative energy sources, and how much impact all that is having on customers and the environment:

I want to recreate that for my birthday. I don’t even care if I’m topless, I just want to have that level of carefree attitude for at least 5 minutes.
