Meh. I saw this kind of reasoning on P & T's Bullshit, where they had a local business owner complaining about government regulations mandating the minimum number of parking spots for people with disabilities. Both Penn and the guest were crapping on about this while standing in a nearly empty parking area, and both saying that if it weren't for government regulations, the local businesses would create more disability parking spots, to pull in more business.
The elephant in the room, of course, was that the government only mandated the minimum - there was nothing stopping the local businesses from creating more than that which, of course, they absolutely did not do. This is the essence of libertarianism in reality - a whole lot of complaints on restriction of activity and "if we were more free, this would happen", but never any follow-through.
