I thought it might speak to JAG more.

Regulations are needed no matter how free a society is, to ensure that one dude's freedom isn't restricting another dude's freedom. Ie. if one guy can build however he wants to, then he could build a huge wall and block out the sun for guy #2, and that wouldn't be very nice to the other guy
The wall example would be wrong since its infringing on the other's rights. I was speaking of how many towns require permits for houses or sheds to be built on your own property.
