The Effects of Deregulation on Global Economy
Introduction
Thesis: Deregulation has more negative effects on global economy than positive.
Deregulation, this word is heard on the news, economists use this word quite often, and government officials are somewhat terrified of this word. What does deregulation mean?
Deregulation is the process in which a government may remove or reduce certain restrictions in matters of business to have a more efficient operation of markets. By observing the effects that deregulation can cause on an economy, can help later generations not commit the same mistakes that the past or the current generations have done.
In today's global economy being regulated by the government is in the norm. Businesses that deal with a very competitive field are limited as to how much they can grow and how low they can make their prices. For example back in the 1800s Andrew Carnegie created a monopoly that was not regulated. By lowering his prices he caused others unable to compete with him. By doing this Andrew Carnegie drove others out of the steel-producing business. When one person not only has control over a specific area but is the only supplier of this item, this is called a monopoly. These days the government regulates actions such as the ones mentioned above.
What can happen if the government's let go of some of these regulation? Will businesses flourish while hurting the common people? Will deregulation help to push another depression? Will the environment be harmed while people benefit from their selfish desires? These questions will be discussed later in the paper.
Throughout the world governments are giving large corporations a lot of leeway or deregulation. In Russia for example, the government have deregulated their laws concerning in the electricity sector. Railroads and communal utilities are also something that was recently deregulated by the government. Both of these called for the development of better technologies, better and more efficient ways of using energy. Better ways
