During this topic, you learned about several government agencies responsible for enforcing regulations on goods and services in the marketplace. Pretend that you are a freelance writer with a popular blog, specializing in articles on market regulations. You have been asked to post an article about the amount of government regulations present in the U.S. market.
Choose one of the items listed:

• a desk,
• a cheeseburger prepared at a local restaurant,
• a bicycle,
• lip gloss,
• over-the-counter allergy medicine, or
• a gas-powered lawnmower.
  

In your blog post, discuss the amount of involvement expected from each of the following government agencies:

• The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC),
• The Food and Drug Administration (FDA),
• The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and
• The Department of Labor.

Explain the involvement of each agency in regulating the production of your chosen good. If the government agency would not be involved in regulating the production of your chosen good, be sure to explain why.

Utilize digital images and a word-processing, presentation, paint, or graphics program to assemble your article. Your post should be well-organized, creative, and interesting. This writing must be a minimum of four paragraphs, including an introductory paragraph, body paragraphs, and a conclusion. Before starting, review the Market Regulations Blog Checklist to ensure that your article meets all necessary requirements.
