Or, wow. Conspiracy theorize much? Is your assumption that businesses are thriving while wasting 10-30% of their revenue on busywork? If so, it should be trivial to crush them with your 10-30% reduction in overhead. Do it? Is your theory that regulations requiring hard-to-automate bureaocratic work is created with the sly intention of creating busywork for people? Ah, special interests. They can lead to some messed up stuff, but most regulations are put in by well-meaning people trying (often ineffectually) to do what they're actually stated to be for--enforcing safety, fairness, etc. I've regularly stated that I want most of my job automated away by Google, and we do have start-ups chipping away at old business models, but if it were entirely a matter of simply deciding to stop wasting money, I'm going to go out on a limb and say someone would've done it already.
