This makes no sense to me. Lives get better through many factors. Better knowledge. Better medicine. Better education. Better products. Greater shared wealth. And, ideally, better regulation.

I do not vote for governments who allow companies to sell dangerous goods to unsuspecting people for profit.

By all means let them sell dangerous products to informed people who know and accept the risks (I’m looking at you, Blast Aqua Park :). But regulation is needed because shitty companies do shitty things to people who don’t deserve it, don’t expect it, and are “encouraged” to have no idea about it.

There are always going to be bad actors who make the world worse. And, because of those people, we need regulation.

Who pays for that? You don't sound like you're an active participant in producing any of that stuff. You sound like you're just an advocate for "more" regulation. How does that help? Don't you agree that bad regulations do more damage than a single bad actor? Like in Soviet Union?

Or it could just be that you're the bad actor in disguise, or you don't realise it yourself. Don't get me wrong here, but your mindset sounds like that of a young child, who wants to control everything, by "regulating" others' behaviour.

Great, now I got flagged. Someone is trying to regulate my words, because they feel uncomfortable. Funny I just predicted exactly that. The comment became recursive. Just like the self-fulfilling recursive personality structure of a narcissist.

For the record, it wasn’t me.

Irony alert.

Not getting it. It's not about you anyway.
