Usually governments regulate their markets to prevent humans from going full human and burning everything as a sacrifice to the gods of greed. This is why we have agencies that regulate food safety, engineering standards, nuclear materials and chemical disposal.
The phrase "regulations are written in blood" reminds us that a race to the bottom will result in massive problems, and that regulation is an excellent idea.
