My 2c: end regulation, restore common law liability

In the US governments control companies through regulation and non-common-law liability (eg random environmental groups with no property right that has been harmed or threatened get to sue to stop other people from building things).

Instead "we" should control companies through common law liability: if someone can present specific harms they can sue. Otherwise people can do what they want and the courts should refuse to intervene.

I totally agree, however, society is now basically at a point where citizens are wards of the state.

They want to be protected from any kind of risk and refuse to take ownership of their own decisions. In that kind of an environment, you need to have some kind of regulator to step in and punish the baddies like Daddy would do.

"punish the baddies"

common law liability does this (if they are actually baddies)
