Abstract: Standards in the United States are voluntary standards which means that they become effective only at the consent of the governed. This consent is derived from the technical content, practicality, need, and past experience with the methods or devices which are the subject of a given standard. This system of voluntary standards has worked extremely well for us and is due primarily to the fact that in many standards writing bodies the users are the driving force. Outside of the U.S., however, standards in many countries are mandatory. This has the effect that a given standard must be implemented regardless of the actual benefit or the cost to the user. This condition is brought about due to complete governmental control over their standards which fortunately has not come to pass in our country
