Life needs rules, but sometimes we're better off when if some people break some rules. Here's our show: HOUSE RULES: Today's most famous successful rule breakers are the "sharing economy" companies like Uber and Airbnb. They keep gaining happy customers but most everywhere they go, established companies get mad because they must obey the rules. Some cities ban Airbnb. We sent producer Rikki Ratliff to visit one. STREET VANDAL ATTACKS CLINTON HQ: Conservative street artist Sabo plastered some provocative anti-HIllary posters outside of her campaign headquarters in Brooklyn. Usually "street art" is associated with the left but Sabo defies that rule and says he wants to be "mean, nasty, and just as bad as Bill Maher." His artwork around Los Angeles sure is close. RULING THE NEW MEDIA: You used to need an agent or record company to become a Hollywood hotshot, but now teenagers found a way around the traditional rule-makers and make millions of dollars posting their own videos on YouTube. RULEBREAKER AWARDS: Entrepreneur Mike Michalowicz honors innovators who defy convention by giving prizes to winners of what he calls "The RuleBreaker Awards." MY TAKE: The rule breakers on this show have done great things, but they're nothing compared to the original rule breakers, our Founding Fathers. They broke rules to give us our rights. Today we need to rebel again, no longer against kings or the church, but against the regulatory state.
