I concur that the most free market (especially today with widespread technology use and instant communication) we have the best chance to get the best outcomes. Small business won't be encumbered by rules, and everyone literally (most people never mention this) won't be bogged down mentally by the simple state of there being so many laws on the books they have to worry about to run a business!

Some business doesn't pay enough or is unfair? FINE, start your own business, switch companies, post a bad review, tell your friends the experience, do your best to chastise them and I bet the situation will change. Companies can so easily get bad PR with social media that it's really hard to be a jerk these days UNLESSS they're a jerk because they have to abide by draconian laws.
