Bacon is less processed than any vegetable oil out there.

Bacon is just a small step forward. Eat salo!

Kibble brands are McDonald's of pet food. Everything they do must be avoided like cancer. Everyone who spreads their misinformation must be cancelled.

Surprisingly Beehaw is more welcoming than LW. LW is just full of power tripping ex-Redditors. I'd actually say that Reddit is better these days. It's mind boggling...

No, it doesn't. Don't be so ignorant, please.

Well, raise that question with IRS then, because right now he's fair and square and you're talking bull shit.

That's a great point! Let's discuss it!

You see, regulations can be split into two categories: consumer protection and business protection.

Consumer protection policies and regulations protect consumers from business malpractice. For example, here in Europe we have 1-2 years (depending on the country) of warranty for every product sold enshrined in the law. And that's something unheard of in the US, because communism or something.

On the other hand, business protection regulations protect existing businesses against competition. A good example is software patents: so common in the US, non existent in Europe.

Somehow when lobbyists are brainwashing American public to get more regulations, they're talking about business protection and when they want to deregulate something they're talking about removing consumer protections and American public makes the wrong choice every time.

Speaking of planes you can see this in Europe again: no competition regulations for air lines, yet strong consumer protections resulting in loads of air lines popping up all the time.
