So your solution is to have giant corporations be completely unregulated?

I think we saw how that went wrong in the 1800s, we already tried that...

I agree less regulation would probably be good, especially due to regulatory capture being so common. But zero regulation is just as foolish as tons of regulation. Zero regulation just means companies do whatever they want, set up their own governments, etc. Eventually the normal government would become obsolete and a corporate government that's more powerful would take over, would it not? Then we'd be right back where we started.

Without regulations corporations aren't protected by the government, so consumer choices will be mandatory

Without regulations, corporations are free to literally destroy their competition, so the most ruthless and largest corporations with armies literally can destroy the rest

The corporatocracy is the true threat to humanity.
