Is it time to revisit regulation? On the next Your Call we host a debate about the ideology of deregulation, the theory that putting rule making power in the hands of corporations is good for everybody. After thirty years, what evidence is there that this idea has worked in transportation, energy, financial services and municipal utilities? On election day in Texas and Ohio, the economy was front and center, but why were the rules that run the economy so hidden? It's Your Call, with me, Rose Aguilar and you.
