I agree with this sentiment.

This is also true in the case where exploitation runs rampant and a company that operates at a loss causes other operations to go out of business. The causal effects of these type of practices are not without malice to the local economy. Does this mean regulations should be so restrictive? Well duh, absolutely not. There are case studies where working together can work and there are cases where significant aggressive operating tactics are detrimental to the local economy. The two have to actually want to work together.
