And no one is talking about government "taking over" anything for the long term.
It is fear mongering to compare government regulation with government take-over or government control.

Environment- yep, till Bush got into power, then no.
Food and Drugs- Nope, not under either Bush or Clinton.
Workplace safety- 50/50. Pretty good job.
IMHO it is not fear mongering when the President of his minions can have the president of a major US Automaker step down. It is not fear mongering when you watch as the Government slowly takes over or gains influence over the major banking, credit, and lending aspects of the private industry while it bankrupts our grandchildren's future with deficit spending.
