A caller called in, an older electrician, concerned because people were tearing down well built older houses and replacing them with McMansions that, while showy on the outside, were very, very badly constructed. Neil basically accused him of “sour grapes” and that he was just jealous because he couldn’t afford one of those houses, and that building codes and inspectors took care of any problems. The man tried to explain that building codes just encouraged people to work to minimal standards, but Neil cut him off.

Sigh. I dunno about the rest of his show, but he was not just wrong, but good gawd almighty wrong. The man that had been wiring houses for 20+ years knew a lot more about what was going on in places that didn’t show than ol’ Neil does.

Neil is *assuming* that all low-paid government building inspectors are, ahem, totally honest. He’s also assuming that all subcontractors are; both assumptions are wrong. I would not buy a house if I found it was built by one of those nationwide mega contractors.
