Trotta!!! Regulation in exchange for a functioning market?

Well, I didn't mean regulation... I simply meant a group that makes sure prices are what they are cause of the market... not to regulate. Just a watchdog group to make sure its reasonably honest... kind of in the same vein as antitrust laws...
I'm as pro-business as they come, and if it costs $1.50 a litre to produce and sell the fuel with a good profit margin for the seller, so be it. But if it only costs a fraction of that, and someone is marking it up to $2... thats a bit of a cause for concern. There's a reason we have antitrust and usury laws...
I'd rather not have any government interference, frankly.
