What regulation system or governing system is best now for the U.S.A..
Regulations may be made in any sort of political system, or even in a
computer algorithm. For instance they exist in traffic control
systems. Structures for regulation are ubiquitous these days. In FB
for example, one has all sorts of implicit regulations regarding what
can be posted. The use of html code is regulated so one cannot take
over the entire page with advertisements for one’s book.

Moral principles differ from political philosophy. One might use
utilitarianism as a moral system for instance that of Jeremy Bentham
or John Stuart Mill, and seek the greatest good for the greatest
number. A society such as the United States has a democracy and
government in theory with the consent of the governed. A government
of by and for the people and its actualization in the empirical
world has strength and meaning only insofar as the citizens credit it
with such. It is in effect a political co-op.
The
citizens may choose what sort of taxation and public services they
want to support to better their situation. Making the democracy the
most effective, efficient nation they can; one able to defend itself
and its interests and to allow the pursuit of happiness and summun
bonum-supreme good-of the people individually and collectively may
entail creating a social safety net and structures that enable
individuals to avoid or extricate being in oppressive, stagnant
social-economic circumstances. Individuals no longer live in a
do-it-yourself frontier economy largely detached from the economic
activities of their fellow citizens. Networking is national and
global. Keeping as much individual freedom for self-determination as
possible along with the best way of life (as an individual and
democracy determine) requires right political and tax policy.
Capital
returns are increasing faster than national economic growth in the
United States presently. For one time wealth has been concentrating.
In 20 years or so the economy largely will be owned by those that
have inherited capital. That makes for an inefficient and
increasingly economic determinism for the vast majority of
individuals of the democracy that I transitioning to oligarchy and
plutonomy.
