Deregulation is supposed to bring prices down as competition between companies brings the prices down. This is also to promote inovation as cheaper ways to do things is developed & released.
The fact is, the big companies eat up the little ones and then they raise there rates because they are then [effectively] the only game in town.
And development - Ha! - they moan and groan because they have to support so many people that they don't have time and/or money |

| Why not just let business regulate itself? That's what doctors do with medical boards and lawyers do with the Bar. You catch and punish the 0.001% bad guys that way ...
And you wouldn't believe those pesky little details that FDA inspectors want drug companies and fresh meat packing houses to comply with! |
