It might be instructive to consider why it was felt these industries needed regulating in the first place?

  Yeah, because nobody can take personal responsibility from them themselves anymore. And everybody turns to big government to save them.

Ah yes, why demand that doctors be properly licensed – you should just "take responsibility" and do a little background check after your car crash, just to make sure you're not operated on by some random hack. I wonder how much time you'll spend inspecting farms and food processing plants in order to "be responsible" about the food you eat. Have we seriously learned nothing from the last century or so of mostly sensible regulations? I dread our species' future.

    Was the government big when these regulations were introduced?
