I concur with this sentiment. I am shocked at how many people have never heard of an externality. There are some cases where government involvement is necessary. Now, I probably disagree with some of you on the amount of regulation required in certain areas, but to automatically state that less regulation is good without thoroughly assessing the situation is…silly. 

 

Hey!  There is obviously no harm to anyone allowing corporations to pump lead into the air and dump toxins into our rivers.  Shouldn't we be more concerned with how this will affect the market?  I mean those corporations might have to pay a few thousand dollars to dispose of their waste properly.  That it money that is being taken out of your pocket to spread the wealth around that hurts Joe The Plumber and Suzie the Sailor and Billy the Builder.

 

I love Billy the builder he's so cute... oh, wait, that's Bob the Builder... sorry about the confusion.

Damn FDA causing my food, which is the cheapest and most plentiful in the world (by PPP per capita), to be slightly more expensive.  I'm sure glad the government made sure it was no longer the safest.
