None of your examples showed regulating away the competition. I seriously question if you read your own links or the regulations you've brought up. So I'll ask again, what do you think marketing is about? We have established since you didn't disagree, that branding and labeling are not part of marketing, so what is part of marketing?
Tell that to their competitors.
That's like saying the regulations on abortion doctors and abortion clinics isn't stifling them, either. Forcing women to watch an ultrasound, and wait before getting an abortion is just a good way to make sure they are informed... right? Requiring that an abortion clinic be the same as a trauma surgery center is just a way to make sure those women are safe... right?
It wasn't "non-whiskey" until the regulation came to exist. The legislation itself made the distinction.

And in this case, it's corporatism.
Considering I'm literally opposing a corporation controlling the government, your entire question is utter shit.
Except it literally doesn't. Nowhere in any articles is competition barred from participating in the market. How is it limiting competition?
Is having to put nutrition information on packages also limiting competition?
Yeah, it's about marketing, because it is about marketing. You have a problem with marketing, not with these regulations. I see you are unable to answer the question "what is marketing about".
Your analogy is stupid and entirely incorrect.
Abortion is not a commodity for a start. Tennessee Whiskey is a commodity made with a specific process that is unpatented and can be used by anyone. If I felt like it I could start producing Tennessee Whiskey today if I felt like it. There’s nothing in that law preventing me from doing so. Alternatively I could start producing a different kind of whiskey or both kinds of Whiskeys.
However one thing I wouldn’t do is make fucking Gin and call it Whiskey.
Yes, lots of regulations, do you think this is the only one I oppose?
This one is being pushed by a company, because it's the process that they use.
S, there goes your theory about me wanting corporations to control the government.

You literally just said legislation is marketing.

It's a service, and those are regulations on that service. They pretend it's all about protecting the patient, is it?
They could literally be making a bourbon, and not be able to call it a whiskey, all because of the fucking barrel.
SO, how about those abortion restrictions I pointed out, aren't you in favor of consumer protections?
No, you said "make away" which means what in your world?
You really shouldn't use words that you apparently don't understand.
It's not weird, because I don't. See, if the regulation allowed only JD to use the brand Tennesse Whiskey that would be different, but it doesn't.
Not going to answer the question I see, too hard hm? Well, I am going to find something easier next time, I promise.
