I'm always a little cautious, there's a few amendments that are out there that I think could do some damage, so I've been more concerned about over regulating, going too far.

But let me tell you what happens when regulations go too far, when they seem to exist only for the purpose of justifying the existence of a regulator. It kills the people trying to start a business.

I'm not a big fan of regulation: anyone who likes freedom of the press can't be.

Politicians love regulating. That's part of the whole power structure.

Regulation creates a moral hazard.

When businesses affirmatively like regulations, that's when to reach for your wallet.

Regulation is necessary to protect our natural environment, keep our food and medicine safe, and ensure fair competition and fair treatment of our workers.

There is no such thing as free regulation.

I think there's a point to regulating, because there are snake oil companies.
