everything better by having a government plan imposed on it. >> turn left, turn right. >> go faster. go slower. >> it didn't improve any one's skating. it made things worse. maybe because i am not a skating specialist. we need an expert. what about this woman? she once skated in the olympics. now she coaches figure skating. i will get the expert to do it. >> no holding hands. slow down. >> we gave nstruction. >> somebody please take the miophone away from that guy. >> don't you need police on the skate rink? >> never. >> it works when you let people make thousands of decisions a minute. there's no way that any planner can know all of those things as fast as you and i know our own

bulldozers and went to work. >> within days the baptists gave them a new home and built up a storm shelter. the volunteers will install 120 of these for families who lost homes. >> it was a mess out here. they cleaned it up. they cleaned it up and fixed it up and got us into our home. they have done that for the whole neighborhood. >> they have asked fema for a home loan. they got no response for three weeks then they were rejected. all of a sudden we hear hammering and she looks back and grabs my shoulder i look up they are already on the roof before they said yes. they were on a roof, the roof with tarps. >> we have people come from florida, alabama,>> without asking. strangers boarded up broken windows. >> they came up and started chopping all of these woods. >> we had people driving

through. >> it was faith daysed fema that brought relief. >> people i don't know walked up and gave us money. it was taken care of. >> it is what happens every day in communities where there is an event or tragedy. >> neighbors helping neighbors. we need the barn raised who will show up and make it happen. >> spontaneous. it is way better. >> no one organizes it? >> communities come together to help meet the needs of their neighbors. it is called being american. i don't think there is any kind of disaster that will take place that the nonprofit faith based groups cannot take care of. >> a man who said no plans no problem. he built what the planners didn't. >> people have an idea and actually follow it

>> i can wear the government planners now. don't plan. spontaneous order? maybe thereat's okay for ice skating but when it comes to important projects like building roads you need government central planning. >> have a lovely day. >> but you don't. >> why are these british tollbooth workers cheerful? >> thank you very much. >> because they work for a man who built a private road. >> it's amazing. kudos to him not many people have an idea and follow it through. >> heavy rains have damaged the local highway. the government promised it would repair the road quickly. >> after three weeks they said it's going to be three months. after three months they said it's going to be a year. my wife said, you should put down some hard-core, make it a bit more safe and charge a toll fee. i said i think i could build it.

>> you are not a road builder? >> i am not. >> at the local pub he had a fa asked a farmer can i build a road on your land? >> we shook hands he said build it use my land. if there's any profit at the end of it we will split it. we had another pint of beer i went home and woke up in the morning and i thought how the hell do you build a road? >> he was able to build it in 12 days. he got the money for it he and his wife went to the bank. gave a letter to say we would she sell our house. >> when the house on the line he built a house. private road means privately built. any one who pays 3 bucks can use it. thousands do. >> do you like it? >> yes. brilliant. i hope the bloat makes a million quid over it. >> saved us so much time and money. >> twef two toll operators on 24-hours a day. >> british toll roads happened to be how we got the word turnpike.

>> we would have two guards either end of the toll road and they would have a pike. once they paid their toll fee they would turn the pike and let the people through. >> mike's road had no gates. few drivers cheat. >> three people have actually driven through and not paved. everyone is so happy. >> if only they could have thought of it. >> the government council's leaders say they did think abouç it. >> othas a council we couldn't e put in a temporary toll road. we would make anything we build conform to highway standards. >> the government standards raise the cost of fixing their own. mike built his road for less than 300,000 dollars. >> they are caught within the bureaucracy. >> you can't just do what you m6ñ"átk almost killed off mike's road with endless objection.

>> get a guy to drill a hole and tell us the road is not impacting on what's going on down below. >> the 11th hour came up with the fact that they didn't come up with anything logical. an investigation before we built the road. >> archaeological dig to look for old kings and queens or why? >> it is just another objection. that is not a little bit like printed name. take things from the hands from consultants to prepare all of the paperwork. >> yet you still built the road for a tenth of what the government was going to pay. interviews the government opened the road more quickly. >> mike is out of the road business. he managed to break even and he learned something that everyone should know.

>> we have gone too far in regulation. too far. >> way too far. fortunately there is one part of the world that is not dominated by regulation yet. that's the in this is the silverado special edition. this is one gorgeous truck. oh, did i say there's only one special edition? because, actually there's five. ooohh!! aaaahh!! uh! hooooly mackerel. wow. nice. strength and style. it's truck month. get 0% financing for 60 months plus find your tag and get $5500 on select chevy silverado pick-ups when you finance with gm financial. find new roads at your local chevy dealer.
