So, I’ll pass on the hyper-regulation card. Despite its occasional mini-disasters, deregulation and competition has been an essential force in improving the American-way-of-life. Sure, have the government use its muscle if need be (with prosecution and civil enforcement), but don’t hamper our economy with needless regulation and causing millions of jobs to melt away to more stream-lined economies in Asia.
so you agree: regulations are necessary. because… no one is calling for “needless” regulation.
edit: “regulations” for us peons is called The Law. laws that pertain to business are called “regulations” in order to give negative connotations. ie., businesses having to abide regulations are being hampered whereas businesses having to abide by the law are not.
