It Is A Law To Buy Shoes And Try Them On.

According to China Daily, do you know that you should try on your boots before you buy them?

Some people may think this question is too silly, but in fact, this should be commonsense but appears in the European Union's legal provisions.

A study published by a think-tank in the United Kingdom recently revealed that the EU has approved a lot of unnecessary or even absurd legal documents in the past 10 years, which has caused great waste of social resources.

According to reports, the study of "Free Europe" by the UK think tank shows that, in the 50 years since the establishment of the European Community in 1957, the European Union has passed 667 thousand pages of legal documents, which add up to more than 1 tons of weight.

There are many useless and ridiculous rules in the legal provisions that still have legal effect, such as requiring teachers to assess the noise level of students and demanding that ladder should not be used in high altitude operations.

According to a survey conducted by Free Europe in October last year on 1000 chief executives of British companies, most of them believe that enterprises have paid huge human, material and financial resources to implement some meaningless laws and regulations, resulting in far greater social resources wasted than their benefits.
