Also, el oh el to the guy who trusts the government to regulate things over the private sector. |
Yea because a company that has waste won't dump it into your drinking water if they don't regulate him to not do so. So yes the government is there to stop those things. There is a lot of good regulation and bad regulation. This is not a all or nothing, there is a grey area. GOV. plays a major role. sorry you don't think so. People die off of unregulated companies all the time. If you didn't know that you are not informed but you go ahead and trust a person who see's profits over people.

except that in a free market, a company wouldnt be successful at all if they poisened their consumers.
its not it the best interest of a company to harm their consumers, they will/would quickly go out of business if they did because everyone woul switch to the other competing company that isnt killing them.
there is little to no need for the government to regulate companies.
self regulation by the market will do it wayyy more effectively.
