| Corporate calls for regulation usually translate to "regulatory capture to ensure the moat", in my books. |

If we believe all the hype about programming efficiency, then regulatory capture in the US becomes just one more in a list of many steps the current administration has taken to chase software development jobs overseas. |

| Especially since it seems to be a call for Trump, specifically, to control the models. |
