To further your idea, I believe there needs to be a healthy balance of both. Blanket statements, policies etc tend to raise more problems after the solve the initial problems it set out to solve.

Take my username- Fdanconia pays homage to Francisco d'ansonia, one of the protagonists from Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged. It reminds me that I used to think "pure capitalism and no government" was an answer. Now, I believe that a healthy mix of both regulation and competition is essential to our society.
