This is a grab bag of regulatory and non-regulatory stuff. How long do you spend in jail for making a nonstandard screw? Standard contracts are industry standards (mostly) not government or regulated. Where contracts abut government function is enforcement and to some degree limitations and exclusions on what contracts are allowed to cover. US health care is not easy to one-line, but I think you’d be hard pressed to argue that the space is not heavily regulated already, and yet mysteriously still has tons of problems. Safety regulations I’ll grant you are probably a net benefit to society. Largely because limitations of liability make the situation too asymmetric.
