you cant assume ceteris paribus every time

It's more of economic theory

When you cut regulations you save the firms money

= economic growth, higher wages, lower unemployment

in theory, ceteris paribus, you would be correct, but in practice often times more regulation doesnt necessarly mean people are worse off than before

It's always like that

regulations don't do anything

it's literally not

apart from raise prices

limit consumer choice

cause high barriers to entry

reduce economic growth and employment

again

you are correct

if you assume **ceteris paribus**

Let me give you an example

ISPs are monopolised you agree?

in USA?

yes

do you understand why?

because of regulation

Regulations such as net neutrality and zoning laws

correct

healthcare hospitals is monopolised

and prices are soaring

why?

Over regulation of the market

i dont think net nautrality caused the problem of ISP monopolies but ok

it's mostly the special status that some local governments give these ISPs

Net neutrality limited competition

this video explains it

it was made by a network engineer

Don't know what ben said

he basically said more regulation = bad

Net neutrality isn't the sole cause of the ISP monopolisation

yes

it was the zoning laws

yes zoning laws are probably the biggest reason

this is wrong already

then again im not american
