Government regulation helps create a fairer marketplace in which more companies can compete

Reasons To Disagree
Government regulations tend to close down competition rather than increasing it by increasing costs.
All gummint reg's do is tilt the playing field, favour the inefficient, create anomalies and create a need for more reg's - a vicious circle which ends in chaos.
A fairer marketplace is achieved by the right to trade voluntarily without any impediment.
Government regulation only decides which companies can compete

Reasons To Agree
Local loop unbundling and broadband
It should help. But it doesn't always. Could do better.
|
Reasons for Remain Neutral
The purpose of government regulation is to create a fair marketplace. It does not necessarily follow that there will be more companies competing. Who still has a stranglehold on the telecommunications market?
A balance is required - too many monopolies are bad for the consumer; too many regulations are bed for the consumer.
governments usually over regulate & under facilitate - causing regulation to become a burden, rather than an accelerant
