[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 2467955, member: 12508"] Here are a few facts that even a Republican can understand. Businesses need regulation because time and time again it has been proven that they will NOT do the right thing when they screw-up or are not held accountable. Instead, they lie to protect the business and profits. 2 recent examples in the auto industry are Volkswagen and GM. VW knowingly re-programmed it's cars to beat EPA regulations...but they got caught. GM knew about defective ignition switches, yet did nothing until the [B]government [/B]held their feet to the fire. It takes years to prove these companies LIED, and they usually fight it all the way. There are countless other examples in other industries, like food-processing and pharmaceuticals. Many companies do things with potentially lethal consequences as long as they can until they get caught. Remember the chicken processor (I think it was Tyson) that had chicken crap stacked as high as the conveyor belts that were carrying processed fryers? Again, the company was just fine with not taking care of the problem, until they were inspected, caught, and fined by the [B]government.
