Bruce - I'm certainly not a fan of Big Brother's tendency to over-regulate so many aspects of our lives. However, I'm equally opposed to the tactics found in several non-regulated industries which take advantage of uninformed/misinformed citizens. On either side of the middle, consumers pay an unnecessary or inappropriate premium for goods and services.
I am quite certain that I am a victim of similar tactics to those outlined above for other consumer products of which I have little background knowledge.
Always remember: caveat emptor
