Nobody is arguing for deregulation. We just want government regulation that doesn't overtly protect the wealth of the ruling class.

Stop perpetuating false dichotomies that preclude valid criticism of current policies.

It's fine to protect the wealth that is value creating (like actual industry). What is happening is increasing protection of value transference sectors (banking, pure equities plays that are often tax free, Hollywood's intellectual property), combined with increasing pressure on value creation sectors (higher corporate income tax rates) on actual real income, especially for small business that does not have scale to participate in legal tax dodging schemes.
Hmm, I see how I could be seen as doing that.

Thanks for the reply!
