Why is it a big deal? Thousands of companies try to get their
products approved and mandated by the government. Maybe someone
working on the campaign lost a limb and didn't want to see that
happen to others.

If the technology were mandated, think of how fast the price would
drop. That would benefit everybody.


I have heard that SawStop is even going to charge for their products and the
dealers will collect sales tax. Damn them. They are doing every thing so
legal. I bet they even have a patent on their technology. They don't fight
fair. Damn... ;~)
