Multinationals love regulations and taxes. They love them, love them, love them. Why? The reasons are two fold, they love the fact that all of these regulations can be very expensive and keep the riff riff out of the market and starting up and competing from scratch cost prohibitive. Secondly those taxes and regulations are the perfect excuse to off shore and exploit slave labor overseas and re -importing back into the USA duty free -- the real reason for offshoring. For big cap manufacturing it is a win-win.
Uhm, started a small business lately?
The freedom of market economics is the freedom to replace producers that price themselves out of the market.
