All regulation is deleterious. Every attempt to regulate economies have failed. Many will not be convinced and say that there is degree of regulation that is advantageous. This is what the present government would have us believe, but they are wrong. It is important that people consider this in their thinking.
Economic rationalism is seen as putting profit before people.
This is blatant nonsense. Profit is the agreed advantage gained and paid for by any transaction seen as favourable. The only transactions, not entered into willingly are government coerced ones. Profits are an indication of the satisfaction of consumers. Big business are the providers of choices, not a burden to the people.
