Because it distorts the market and interferes with allocation of resources. It doesn't change because the regulation was done so "democratically" as oposed to dictatorially.
This is not an answer, this is a dodge. How does inspecting meat for ecoli "distort" the market? Is it a distortion of good market practice to require good market practice? Is a market only free if it is free to harm people? And is requiring someone to allocate enough resources to ensure their product is free of harmful agents really "interfering"?

Tell me, could that be you?
