They interfere a lot, and its a bad trend, but they still don't interfere as much as many other countries, and thats an advantage for Americans.

They interfer more than most, less than some. And it's a good thing... it keeps the consumer safe. We've often led the western world in new regulation, setting the example.

The US has more complex regulations than such countries, but the regulations are complex, partially because they lay our rules, and even limits, rather than just the government leader or leaders arbitrarily and capriciously deciding what they will seize or control or limit.

Agreed. Which is of and by itself a "regulation".
