Interesting perspective. So the suggestion is to redirect our blame away from our elected representatives or even from electing representatives that run in a campaign that aligns with our priorities.

There’s more than enough blame to go around. It’s not a zero sum game.

I’m not sure how you came to that conclusion based on what I wrote, but my suggestion is to not let companies escape consequences for shitty things they do simply because regulators fail to be effective at their jobs. Legally allowed is not the same as morally acceptable.

Yeah I was going to say it’s better to blame the policy makers but who the fuck cares? Neither side of that coin does.
