Because regulation breeds higher prices and tends to lower efficiency.

Example: the regulated Taxi industry was stuck in a 1950's model under Uber/Lyft disrupted the industry.

Wait, who was the poster that was so vehemently against Uber and Lyft in New Orleans?

That was fricking hilarious. I think he was a cab driver?

YES!

Man, that dude arguing against Uber and Lyft got me through some slow work days

He initially denied being a cab driver and said he was a neutral party, but eventually it just came out.
