Why, you don't think that having a body requiring minimum quality standards and opposing monopolies may be a good thing for consumers and workers?

[sirkneeland]

I think the problem is when the regulatory body forms an unhealthy relationship with the companies that end up becoming monopolies (regulatory capture, good old fashioned corruption, revolving doors between the two, erc) and discourage new entrants.

It's a balance. It's hard.

[TuringTest]

Yeah, but then people should not be disregarding regulation, they should be asking for the right kind.

[RUG3Y]

Color me cynical, but asking for the kind of regulation we want rarely seems to have any effect.

[TuringTest]

Because you are not a multinational corporation.
