I understand how Capitalism works.

So the answer to the question is more regulation that is supported vastly by these corporations because they understand that they and only they can afford the legal fees to stay in regulation?

Why not give them what they don't want, a true free marketplace where competition is allowed to grow and not squashed by other companies that can afford the lobbying to support these regulations.

Did you think of that?
