to be more accurate: too many activists fail to see the negative
consequences
of their actions, only seeing little successes.

And as Michel Fumento has pointed out, most of those "successes" were
actually reforms that were well in place or developing strongly long before
regulations were enacted due to market pressures (dig out the story of
Alaskan fisheries and their water treatment facilities for a rib-splitting
laugher). The ones that still defy regulations are governmental entities,
mainly the Feds.
