Good points about poorly structured regulation vs. good, unfortunately obscured by a silly take on who is productive. Where does all the most advanced lithography in the world come from? A Dutch company. The U.S. has nothing to compare, and the Chinese even less so, and without this Dutch company's equipment you cannot make the advanced chips in that iPad, or any modern computer.

The points about poorly structured regulation being the worst of both worlds (all the costs with none of the benefits) is solid, though.

I think people keep missing the point. Few or fewer does not mean none.
