Regulators! Mount up.

...no, really. Do your jobs and regulate.

We need to get rid of politicians who are bought and paid for by corporations.

You speak like our regulators aren't bought and paid for as well.

Regulators are politicians. That's literally the point of the comment.

Not necessarily. You don't have to be a politician to be appointed to a regulatory position.

[–] circuitfarmer@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 11 months ago

Who appoints them?
