> every regulation is written in blood

It doesn't mean everything is exactly right but it is a good reminder of what keeps happening when there are no rules there.

That's for safety regulations, and is somewhat true. That's not really what's being discussed here.

There are many regulations that are drafted, and paid for, by monopolies. There's also just outright stupidity put into place, because lawmakers get paid to make laws, so they make laws that sound good, without considering the consequences.

    Sure and if this article actually brought up specific regulations and made a case against them... it probably wouldn't have made the front page and be full of flamewars.
