The problem you see is that they just don't have enough money or power. If we give just a little bit more of each, all of our wildest dreams will come true. /sarcasm I think we need to come up with a different word for coercive regulations. I think the reason they use the word regulation is to sound beneficial.

Regulations hit small businesses the hardest, averaging $11,724 per employee for firms that employ fewer than 50 people in 2012. The overall cost per employee for all companies comes to $9,991. With that kind of drag, it's hardly surprising that the economy is going nowhere fast.
