>I'm stating that less intervention from government is better for business.

And I'm saying you're wrong since the Free Market and our current governance models and public buy-in and wealth distributions have led the greatest business success and innovation in the entirety of human history. Good intervention from government has been fantastic for business.

Then how you can explain gradual slow down in the rate of growth in the last decades? I think it is caused by increase in regulations. Any significant innovation beyond small incremental improvements in many industries is completely paralysed because of regulation. Internet and tech industry is on the same path, in my opinion.

You’re going to have to be very specific about which kind of growth you mean.
