... As far as has government regulation ever really worked, enjoy those basic worker's rights, as well as not being forced to work in a factory since you were 3 years old. Enjoy having a choice in a phone company, instead of being tied to Ma Bell. Enjoy having clean air. Enjoy not being banned from a store based on the color of your skin, your last name, your religion, your age, or your sex. Enjoy all those basic rights that you have because the government has stepped in and regulated something in your life. For every bad law, there are five good laws. Believe it or not, the government is not out to get you through regulation.
You're suggesting that evil corporations forced 3 year olds into the factories? That's just priceless. And FYI, Ma bell was created because of government not inspite of it, as government sought a solution to the proliferation of small telephone companies that were reluctant to serve the less profitable rural areas. So government created the monster that was Ma bell. Then you would give them credit for their breakup -- attempting to fix a problem that they, themselves, created. Wait, this is sounding very familiar... Government causes the home mortgage crisis, then try to fix the very same problem they have caused. Finally, perhaps the Government isn't out to get me through their onerous regulations, but their well intentioned efforts on the whole, have diminished the quality of my life.

Lamest. Sig. Ever.
Mainly because you're trying to be cute.
The lamest sig. ever? Really? Is this your first day on Slashdot? Actually, I thought the sig. was quite clever -- Now, if only I had mod points this week...
