Summary
The extent to which government should be involved with regulation in the private sector is a much-debated question. In a more basic sense, one might ask exactly what is regulation, why is it needed, how is it formulated, and how is it enforced? These pertinent issues are especially relevant at a time in United States history when federal involvement in spheres traditionally left to individuals is being widely discussed by thinkers on both sides of the political spectrum.
