Synopsis
Regulators say window blind cords strangle 11 children each year (1/10th of 1 percent of accidental child deaths), so a new regulation would require cordless window blinds. Bureacrats admit higher prices would result: It comes out to an extra $1-billion a year on sales of 150 units of blinds.
