It's also the basis for much of our laws to preemptively tackle many potential problems and to stop them before they occur. Examples include everything from environmental regulations to corporate anti-trust laws, to work-place & consumer safety laws, food safety laws, and the list goes on...

Before those laws were created, we had numerous examples of pollution, corporate collusion, workplace hazards, etc. What awful scourge that long menaced the public are the yellow dots preventing?

You seem to be possessed of a finely-honed mistrust of human beings (which is wise), along with a credulous confidence in governments made up of human beings (which is... not).
