      If one extreme is bad then the other extreme is good right?

          Regulatory capture would be my obvious. When businesses use the regulatory body that is supposed to regulate them to destroy any competition by making it so onerous to follow the regulations that unless you set up your business before the regulations were put into place, you can’t hope to enter the market, and then abuse consumers and the environment.
