Maybe the arguments aren't new but their, uh, quantity is.

Their arguments are [not] particularly libertarian, or particularly anything, they are not intended to convince anyone, that's what the lobbying is for, and it is not aimed at the general public.

Mostly... but I think you today there are perhaps more people who can get up-in-arms ready to embrace these arguments none-the-less. I don't want to name any particular political movements (cough, cough...).

You could say the arguments on the regulation side aren't real liberal arguments any more and the arguments on the "no regulation" side aren't real conservative arguments.
