Most of them revolve around protecting the environment but those can all be viewed as property rights... mostly against dumping. Dumping waste hurts property and water and property rights are how we have advanced life. But do we need a regulating agency for this? I don't think so.
We should all be able to sue the ever-living-**** out of people/companies/corps that dump waste and not have those people/companies/corps protected by the govt.
But I do believe that the Federal govt has every right and responsibility to regulate monopolies, and oligopolies, something that I think they are failing at. While we really only have a few true monopolies, I see no difference between 5 oil companies and 1 Standard Oil company or 5 ISP companies. Nothing good comes from monopolies or oligopolies.
Then again, I am not a republican so maybe I am of the extreme.
