No, it doesn't mean that at all. Deregulation literally means repeal of existing regulations that are already in place. Sometimes deregulation takes place over time. Sometimes deregulation entails a lessening of regulation, but never quite reaches a truly unregulated state.

Even if and when there is "deregulation" of industry-specific regulations, there are myriad other laws that regulate everyone's conduct that also apply to the "deregulated" industry. So the concept of "deregulation" really doesn't mean much, but it's politically popular.

Do you truly believe that after deregulation of the airlines, there are no regulations covering the airline industry?

You are nothing more than a propagandist.
