Govt regulation of the economy-yay or neigh?
Posted: July 26th, 2009, 9:21 pm
so i have been arguing with this assclown of a liberal who believes wholeheartedly that government regulations on all businesses to "prevent collapses like GM" is not only a good idea, but should have been done years ago. He thinks government regulation will also eliminate bad times, and keep the times good perpetually......dumb-s&%t.......
he argues that free market is flawed in this aspect, and that "head up guys" use it to get rich at the expense of everyone else.
while i can agree with that to a point, isnt it in the CEO's best interest to run a company as efficiently as possible because they will make MORE money with a successful company than if they run it into the ground? he doesnt seem to think so.
so, what are you guy's thoughts? should the government step in, act as "big brother" and regulate business's and thus, the economy, or should it have just left well enough alone and kept out period?
