  The problem I think is that it would just take the form of regulatory capture. A few companies would be blessed, and the rest of us locked out. And we'd still have screwups like yesterday, but this time with Government Approval. Already it's amazing how the media is presenting this like it's a natural disaster, instead of an entirely preventable display of incompetence... A business entity whose shares only dropped 10% after causing untold billions of damage to the economy. Gives us all a bad name.
