Quoting: KimyrielleBut hey, that's just what should be done. I have ZERO faith in any lawmakers on the planet to introduce "business unfriendly" legislation, unless people start dying left and left. And that won't be the case here, so...

Maybe your are this synical because you don't live in the EU, but in the recent years multiple laws have passed to improve the environment, consumer health and animal welbeing, to name a few. And these laws were definitely not friendly for (local) businesess. You should really look into it, I hope it makes you a more positive person :)
