I should have been more clear and said "foster a culture of regulatory competence and good judgment".
This is certainly achievable with the right leadership, wide-basis political protection (cannot be achieved when an agency's leadership is subject to unprincipled undercutting by the President), and sufficient resources.

>You get cultures of competence and good judgement when there is a real competitive market
This doesn't even happen in markets that are highly competitive. Only professional and strict engineering standards work.
Not voodoo economics.
I agree.. but I don't think you can do that organically. I think part of the issue is the size of the corporations, the concentration of that corporate power, and the inability of the market or regulatory agencies to function correctly when this is the case.
You get cultures of competence and good judgement when there is a real competitive market with multiple strong players each vying to have the best products.
