Regulation

Swiss vote to allow stock holders to impose payment restrictions on executives. Why couldn't shareholders do this without the government? Do the executives own too much stock? This is warning for anybody who thinks Switzerland is a free market paradise.

What's wrong with this sentence?
"Ohio businesses would able to prevent layoffs and instead temporarily reduce their employees’ hours while letting them keep benefits and collect unemployment, under a bill proposed in the House."
Why did the government make it impossible for this to happen before?
"The program — SharedWork Ohio — is similar to initiatives in 25 other states, including two nearby: Michigan passed its version of the program last June, and Pennsylvania created a SharedWork program last March."
How did Ohio go so quickly from being one of the most innovative states in the union to being one of the most oppressive and backwards? And we wonder why our economy is so bad.
