"As for our difference of opinion regarding government regulation of private enterprise, I don't think we're going to resolve it here. My position is that businesses are inherently selfish organizations (that is not a criticism or an insult, it's how I will run my business when I get one!) whose primary agenda is their own survival and growth."

Could you explain what you mean by "business is inherently selfish organizations."

A business must make money, and only way it can do this is by providing some kind of product and/or service that the public *chooses* to buy. Unlike a govt which compels people to pay them money and compels them to do things.
