It's must be some interesting mental gymnastics to equate "protecting consumer rights" to "state control".

Who guarantees protection of consumer rights if not the state? Again, I'm not saying it's a bad thing.

People mentioned farmers in your sibling comments, are those consumers? I thought they are not.
