 You mean like how the FDA who is bought and paid for big food regulates food? You mean like how the feds say lucky charms are better for you than meat? You mean like how Big Pharma is regulated so amazingly that they are shielded from liability by the state? You mean like how Americans eat food sprayed with poisons that the feds are totally fine with? You mean like how restaurants are able to serve food fried in rancid oils BC the government encouraged that after they inflated food prices so much people couldn't afford real oils? 

Oh yea. Bang up job done by government regulatory bodies that are completely captured by the very industries they regulate. But hey, if we could just get the right people in there it would finally work right? Just had the wring people in there for the last 100 years is all. 

Seriously man have you actually been alive in the last ten years? The only people speaking out against government regulatory corruption are private entities. And the government could give a shit.
