Here's another example. A file cabinet represents this example's version of regulation. The cabinet doesn't create files, it does not trash files. It merely maintains them until people affect change to the files. The cabinet may become old and broken down... too small and ineffective, or too big and over bulging. But the cabinet made no decisions to either maintain the status quot files nor change them.
The Glass Stegall files (among tens of thousands of others) were eliminated... burned... shredded... They're not unlike confetti in ticker-tape parades.
Now look in any folder hanger where respective regulation files once resided. The folder hangers are empty (de-regulation... no regulation.)
Now, the cabinet is even less an entity than it once was. It's a shell of it's former self. But it didn't have a say in it's weight going from a ton to 500 pounds.
