This is really my main problem - deregulation is the ideal situation, but may prove impossible given the current state of affairs. If this is true, then it's not hard to see that a negative feedback cycle is forming, and the results of that cycle are likely something that most people would find distasteful - namely, state ownership of nearly every similar institution.
