    I have never once seen or heard of market deregulation resulting in an improvement in the health of that market.

      While I’m generally pro regulation, that’s not true. You can absolutely over regulate an industry or put out regulations that are bad.

      For example NIMBY regulations that prevent multi-family units from being constructed or in NJ breweries can’t sell food (due to weird alcohol laws/regulations).

      Then you haven’t been looking very hard. The airline industry in the US is a good example. Your internet search terms could be “deregulation case study” and would also find negative cases

      EDIT: you can downvote, but can you type three words into a search engine and click on one link that doesn’t align with your current opinions? IMPOSSIBLE CHALLENGE!!
