Why do any of our captured regulatory agencies fail to regulate? Many times it&#x27;s because senior staff will get their pension within the next five years, and they want to make sure they have a nice private position to transfer into when that happens. If a large firm fails really egregiously in meeting standards, it will get a series of phone calls and private meetings as the prospective junior exec demonstrates how &quot;helpful&quot; she can be. If OTOH some small manufacturer with forty employees (executive positions available: 0) has the safety info signs installed too far from the equipment, the regulatory hammer is sure to hit it hard.
