@thomasfuchs Depending who you're asking it could be

* Knee-jerk social response to the possibility you'll be told you have to do-- or worse yet, not do-- something by the state

* Loss of cartelization and associated political/economic muscle

* Upfront short-term costs that can't be squared with an 'every quarter must outperform the last one' mentality, or legitimate we-can't-afford-the-bootstrap problems. That last one is legit but addressable.
