This evening, I checked out the Flemish university pool. As promised, there was no funny dress code and I was allowed to wear my trunks. I am also pleased to report that, like every other pool in the world that does not mandate bathing caps, this one has not turned into a giant hairball.
I have no strong feelings about Flemish secession from Belgium. But I could get behind a campaign for equal public funding of Flemish and Francophone pools in Brussels.
A libertarian lesson — sometimes it's best not to over-intervene with policies that may impose unnecessary costs on economic actors with few actual benefits.
