If there is a single, consistent theme that epitomizes the mantra of the homebuilding industry and that its advocates relentlessly roll out, it is the absolute opposition to regulations.  In the observation of this 29-year member, the bread and butter of the National Association of Home Builders advocacy efforts is totally dependent on successfully harnessing this resentment of existing regulatory oversight and the fear of additional new rules.  Seems it’s always good to encourage a little Hysteria amid the flock.
