Excellent piece. We need to not only exit the FDA but also exit any system that supports it. Systemically that would mean making decentralized and transparent systems. We could build parallel ones like what Balaji describes in his book The Network State. Or we could build ones that plug into the existing systems and gives the control back to us. Like this:
This piece is gold. I’d argue that regulations (which are laws passed by regulatory agencies like FDA or SEC) should include a section about implicit assumptions. In other words, the regulation should specify which problem this regulation will solve or help. And then automatically sunset if the regulation doesn’t reach its own goals within a set period, say 10 years.
Well, generally in the US, laws means statutes passed by Congress, and regulations means rules passed by a regulatory agency. When you say regulations would be easier to roll back, who would be rolling it back? This new anti-agency? Because my understanding is that the agencies themselves can easily roll back regulations (if they want to).
