You could say the same about abandoning capitalism for another type of economy wholesale.
The point is that there has always been regulation because when we have tried removing it (look up grain shortage in France during the mid to late 1700’s due to export deregulation) and it ends up the same. Deregulation isn’t the answer.
There is no “seeking perfect deregulation”, only the admittance that deregulation cannot be part of the perfect solution.
North America has never been a free market. Even since the days of Sumer have there been regulations on commerce. We will never have a free market.
We have never had a perfect version of anything but are we pursuing perfection or good enough?

My point is the market has never been perfectly free but do we need it to be perfectly or just well regulated and mostly free?
Oh, well yeah I’d say that’s the best choice to move forward.
