When business can affect polices in there favor. Good luck with that. You can see how well Gov. regulation is working out with John Deers control over farming equipment.

The real problem is that a certain political affiliation has opened the floodgates toward unbridled corporate meddling in politics.

If coroporations can set the rule due to legal bribery (lobbying) that's a larger systemic issue that only underwrites my point.

Fortunately there are other examples that show it can be done better, you may have to look for those examples either outside of the USA or in the past of the USA.

My point is, more gov. regulation isn't working. That is not likely to change until there is a systemic change in our system of government.
bollocks. plenty of gov regulation works in other countries. European trains run on time and don't spew chlorine gas at people.
your point is clearly wrong on so many levels and from so many perspectives it's just laughable.
