Yeah. You start by not electing a political party who hates government in general and regulators in particular.
Their opponents aren't always great shakes but it's no surprise that government functions badly when it's so often under the control of people whose existence is devoted to making it work badly. Maybe they could make a case for making it work better, but for decades they've said over and over that the only thing they want is to drown it in a bathtub.
I apologize for being political but surely people can see a connection between regulatory failure and management by an explicit hatred of all regulators.
Not precisely a policy wonk but I live surrounded by them.
