Right winger says problem is government. Left winger says problem is corporations. Repeat ad nauseum. Yes both can be bad.

95% of regulations and 95% of companies work so fantastically that nobody realizes they exist. Sure.

But re: regulation, that 5% tends to be in the really really important stuff.

How’s housing…and healthcare… and higher education…and the national debt…in the US going?

All of those things make up vastly more than 5% of the economy and are arguably all broken in the US because of poorly designed regulation.

I think assuming most regulation is “good” is an extremely dangerous proposition given regulation is extremely difficult to change or overturn once in place.

It’s important to also remember every regulation requires enforcement at gunpoint. You cannot choose to not follow them.
