That's the whole point - the problem is not with regulations or laws as such, but with harmful regulations or laws.

Protecting consumers from fraud is a good thing, as it promotes good service and (indirectly through increased trust) grows the economy, and makes people/customers/voters happier.

Protecting companies from their competitors is a bad thing, as it promotes bad service from being outcompeted, and (by allowing inefficiencies to stay unchecked) hampers economic growth, and prevents people/customers/voters from choosing what they want.
