Yeah wtf. Regulation is the only reason new businesses can come into the market at all

Indeed. Any problem with small business breaking in right now is mostly a function of the fact that our system for anti-trust has completely fallen off. Like the story about Microsoft and Phil Spencer wanting to buy Nintendo or Valve - in a sane world, they wouldn't even consider it because that's a clear case of consolidation that is harmful for consumers.
