2. Properly balanced regulation is essential.
For the environment.

For societal stability.

For fairness.

For us. Everyone. INCLUDING the executives IN THE LONG RUN.

I will do research to see if Nixon's regulations were out of honest reasons or not... but Watergate infers the idea he was out for the highest buck too.

I don't know if reagan's deregulations and clinton/gore's had a benevolant side, but given our worsened need for oil (which is the crucial point to "homeland security"), we are beyond the corner all right... Maybe 25 years ago we could have continued the correct direction. reagan undid alternative energy policies.
