I’ve never seen that argument you’re responding to before. Admittedly, I’m probably only thinking this in hindsight, but it seems like there are a ton of counterarguments, in addition to what you’ve presented. There isn’t a large opposition to OSHA or the USDA.
That being said, I don’t agree with the cause being about natural vs anthropogenic problems. I think the difference might be how much of an impact the decisions have on most people (rather than just companies). There’s no way I can think of to prove either is correct, and there’s certainly more than one factor involved, so a combination of the two is possible. My intuition is that the impact on the general population is a more important distinction.
