> eliminate the massive protections
It would certainly change things a lot, but it would have to happen through the same democratic process that put the protections there in the first place.
- fineman 11y agoThat never works. You'd need those who benefit from the protectionism to stop lobbying. The issue is that it never was democratic, it was graft that made these regulations and it's graft that keeps them going. The way to get rid of regulatory capture is to make it impossible to enforce and let the leeches die. Uber may not win, but Taxi companies will die.
