Kinda funny that the post bemoans regulation then says: The truth is, incumbent rent-seekers do have powerful lobbies even in the US. The oil industry tried hard to stop Governor Schwarzenegger from passing more stringent green air legislation in California.
One person's responsible legislation is another person's gov't innovation killing regulation.
Many people flock to libertarian political views (and consequently, business models) because they can't see where their selfishness ends and the rest of the world begins.
Consequently, it's not surprising that the defense of their positions ultimately devolve in to convoluted rationalizations for 'do as I say, not as I do'.
