1. regulation is excellent

de regulation is disaster .

regulation gives us all control.

deregulation leads to unsafe food, shabby household electrical items {can you say fires?}, flimsy cars, flimsy houses, ripoffs, bank junk fees, predatory mortgages, et.

Joe Citizen cannot regulate by market choices.. that leads to deaths. And folks just do not spread word of bad items by word of mouth. Odd but true.

Joe Citizen cannot inspect food packing or elctrical cord factories or medical pill factories.. as must be done for our safety.

Dont even think the word "deregulate". I am puzzled at the OP for being prey to such a thing as possibly good.

Deregulate is 100% bad.

The costs of regulation are far, far less than the cost of illnesses it prevents. Regulation does not cost, it pays. By astronomical amounts.
