Am I the only one who read this as "glory be to our overlords for they give us 1 in every 100 days off"

The exact same government agencies that are being praised for their pro competition prescience allowed the market to become an oligopoly between 2000 and 2010.

Not the exact same agencies. Led by new appointees, with new directives. Not so different as you or I might like, but still: political changes do affect the regulatory system.
