Dude that fungus was because regulations were
removed, and they are now trying to come up
with some that would have given the government
the right to step in and prevent.
Do you work for the Koch brothers, by the
way?[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

The problem basically boils down to two factors ...
1) The legal environment nowadays pretty much REQUIRES public companies to act
like sociopaths.
2) Sociopaths don't care if they hurt other people.
Add to that, sociopathic companies and sociopathic management feed off each
other, then what do you expect? Management nowadays has power without
responsibility - which is why employees and pensioners are getting fleeced while
the top guys walk off with the cash.

Now you are going too far.
The cell phone issue is precisely because the
air waves are a public asset that the government
tries to regulate to make sure that it isn't
misused strictly for private ends. Because the
cell phone companies don't own the air waves.
And regulation is certainly appropriate for
public assets that private companies are allowed
to make money from. Especially because people
can die if they don't do it well. Keep in mind
that your rugged individualism only works if
everyone is skilled and smart and caring and
flush with enough money to stock up and plan
ahead. In a country with at least 8% unemployment
that means that somebody has to look out for
those people who simply can't do those things.
Their children don't get to take care of themselves.
If their parents can't, now what? Let them die?
Surely you don't mean that.
If you do, leave Groklaw please and never come
back.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

fixed that for you. FDA had tried for years to get oversight
of these companies and been told "no, we don't want you
regulating small companies" (since "compounding pharmacies"
were supposedly only doing compounding for local doctors) -
except there weren't really any regs that said they couldn't
do mass compounding.
Once more it's not the regulation, but the lack thereof that
created the problem.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
