What’s next? Forcing you to have your groceries home-delivered? Oh, someone’s car had a scratch so now only professional valet drivers are allowed to move cars into and out of the carpark? Some people seem to think that humans should be locked in a protective cage for our own safety, and only allowed to perform tasks that we have had four years of full-time training on.
The weakness of someone’s argument is in direct proportion to the ludicrousness of the “examples” they choose.
Unlicensed, untrained and unaccountable removalists can do a hell of a lot of damage moving people out of a unit (when, by definition, they are gone). Using yourself as an example of someone who would never damage common property in a move is totally irrelevant, unless you plan to do all the heavy lifting yourself (rather than employing three Dutch backpackers at $15 an hour to help). I think people who insist on their “right” to do whatever they want whenever they want on other people’s property should be put in a protective cage to make life better for the rest of us.
