The New Blame Game: How Airbnb Has Been Mis-Regulated As The Scapegoat For Century-Old Problems, Kenyon Briggs
The Business, Entrepreneurship & Tax Law Review
Mis-regulation occurs when regulation does not fix the problem it was enacted to solve. This article first looks at what sort of issues regulation is capable of fixing.

Employees Beware: How Sb 43 Takes Missouri Anti-Discrimination Law Too Far, Emily Crane
The Business, Entrepreneurship & Tax Law Review
SB 43 passed through the Missouri Legislature and was signed into law by Governor Eric Greitens on June 30, 2017.
