Forum Post: who's REALLY regulating business: Free the Market and save the Environment

Here's my take on this - corporations have corrupted our government - they are running the show pretty much - so think about it - all those regulations the small guys hate so much are being implemented by mega-monopolies and mega corporations to slow you down, fix the market and kill all and any competition - fines are nothing to them they go on doing terrible things to workers, and to our environment. If you're wondering why you are so regulated you can't breathe - there you go. Cut monopolies and their hold on our government - watch your little business flourish and grow. Regulating you into oblivion is just part of the m.o. (not that occuppy wants you to pollute all over the country) - but you are aware of the things I'm talking about - unnecessary permits, all this fine, fine print that even lawyers can't keep up with it. A study of third world nations found the types of entanglements you are referring to to be the number one common denominator in all third world nations; Preventing entrepreneurship, fixing the markets, creating a caste system - cut Wallstreet's power and their hold on our government. Simple as that - I agree Wallstreet is regulating smaller business into oblivion and using the politicians to do it (both parties). That's why we're fighting. You can too.
