Out of regulations involving consumers of course most are pushed as helping the consumer, often (but not "most all") it actually is put in place to try to provide some benefit to consumers, but put in place for that reason doesn't mean that it actually has that affect.

No, it doesn't mean it, but it doesn't mean it doesn't. But you've got to figure if that's the intent then mostly it happens. Seat belts are good, non toxic building materials are good.

The regulation is just as corrupt as other human activity.

Not in my experience. Regulators are under much more scrutiny than the average private sector company. But if you have data to back up your blatant statement I would consider it. Do you have data or are you shooting from the hip again?
