That sounds great. Let's regulate it. I am from Venezuela and can tell you the wonders regulation has done for my country's economy.

I'm from Norway and the economy is quite regulated. We're still/therefore (take your pick) very successful [1].

Macro economy is complicated. It seems obvious to me the it's not as simple as "just let everyone run free". On the other hand regulation has it's disadvantages as well. Complicated.

It is complicated. Sweden also seems very regulated (as most of the EU).
