Today's OneWord: Regulation
They told us that regulation wasn't necessary for the economy to flourish. They chided us about profits and bottom lines and quarterly expectations.

Or they shrugged as norovirus spread like wildfire across restaurant chains. Or they didn't care that the pristine lakes in our country gradually mutated into toxic sludge.
