<i>Not only is it frustrating, but even in principle such regulations are definitely overstepping the bounds of government; no government should regulate how a business should operate. The market will decide that.</i><p>I&#x27;m trying to put myself in your shoes to understand where such a statement originates. All I come up with is shoes worn by person who is young, privileged, or both. A bit patronizing, I know, but it&#x27;s all I can come up with. Because I remember a time when we knew that lead in gas was harmful, but &quot;the market&quot; decided that it would cut into profits so it was left as-is for decades. &quot;The market&quot; decided that children working in coal mines was a capital idea. I&#x27;d go on, but you get my point. Need I even bring up the tragedy of the commons?<p>As the son of a contractor, I&#x27;m sure that you&#x27;re aware that regulation also serves as a barrier to entry. &quot;The market&quot; decided that onerous regulations also serve to keep out competitors. That ol&#x27; invisible hand can work for you and against you.
