I don’t identify as a liberal or a progressive so I can’t speak for them. But I can assert with some confidence that many of the laws on the books passed by both Republicans and Democrats in this country are designed to address recognized problems that haven’t been adequately taken care of by individuals or companies exercising their free will.
Agriculture and forestry are good examples of how laws were designed to fix problems that arose from unregulated activities.

Folks did it because it was in their economic interest to do so and they didn’t stop until they were forced to by laws and regulations. The same is true of pesticide applications in ag fields and can you imagine what our ag supply system would look like if there were no restrictions on any form of GMO development?
