When states could regulate(in lieu of Federal) corporations things were much better. Some states may have felt A was better than B. Some states may have done something different.. It is better that control be pushed down to the state level. If you cannot understand what I am saying you are totally misunderstand the founding of the republic.

No, your original claim was that federal regulation is the fault of corporations; that the reason states rights are usurped by the feds is because of corporations.

I'm asking you to explain and/or prove that corporations are the cause of the feds' regulations, and your claim that these corporations lobbying for fewer regulations has somehow caused them.

Regulations stifle competitions and start up competitors. They are a net benefit to large corporations with staff lawyers.

Before EPA, OSHA etc. and states ran things, a state that had few regulations would be the place start ups could go to incubate. No more.
