I couldn't imagine the outrage if they tried to re-introduce the types of restrictions that existed int he 70's. But maybe it's time they do more, because people don't give a crap when left to their own decisions.

It's almost as if Automakers pay large sums of money to politicians to ensure that regulation never happens...
But that would go against the idea that corporations have no role in this amirite?
