Government intervention like forbidding led-based paints or asbestos in homes? Or government intervention like doing something about the ozone depletion? Government intervention like forbidding roaming fees? Intervention like requiring 3-point seat belts? Like progressive taxation? Like forbidding discrimination based on skin colour? Like air travel safety? Like a max ceiling on credit card fees?

Always?

    Ok, sometimes.

    • Give an example regulation which has objectively been catastrophic and where there has been no clear attempts at amending or improving it.

Hopefully this uniquely American push for dysfunctional government stays on their side of the ocean.
