It's a good thing because when a business fails, it fails. Then all of the smaller competitors can pick up the pieces and some will survive to become big companies themselves. When they fail, the cycle repeats.

Most of the reason we need government regulation is because of government in the first place. If companies weren't allowed to protect their interests via legislation, the only recourse they would have to survive is to continue to innovate and provide quality products and services to the people. The only needs for government regulation that I can see is monopoly and actual trusts (read: corporate circle-jerking). Most of the "anti-trust" bullshit we see today is just someone butthurt that their competition has the capability and foresight to integrate vertically. You don't see the EU slapping Apple with an anti-trust suit for bundling Safari with OSX or manufacturing its own hardware, do you?
