The capitalism described here is crony capitalism, where the big corporations and big government collude to push out competition by using the regulations referred to in your post. Big corporations have the legal and financial resources that the little guy doesn't have. This is why big government, with their oppressive regulations, have got to go. We need free market capitalism, not crony capitalism.
