The condensed version:
1. Target a relatively free industry;
2. Enact onerous regulations to “fix” trumped-up “problems” in the industry;
3. Criticize the industry constantly as it struggles unsuccessfully to deal with the onerous regulations;
4. Cluck knowingly about the “market failure” that explains the difficulties of the industry, and pass even more draconian regulations.
5. Repeat process until total economic collapse.
That’s the game plan. Over and over again. Unfortunately, it works.
