If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging. Will Rogers From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The law of holes, or the first law of holes, is an adage which states: "if you find yourself in a hole, stop digging." It is used as a metaphor, warning that when in an untenable position, it is best to stop making the situation worse. Whether the wit of social humorist and vaudeville performer, Will Rogers, or from the first law of holes, we can all admit it’s just common sense. But that isn’t common anymore with our government. With an estimated 90 year payback for the increased cost, the predicted $31k in additional costs by builders, will add $500 plus a month in mortgage costs even under the government’s estimate.
