Period... the watchdog for the business is the media.. that again has a goal to be profitable... and sell papers filled with bad stories about business... consumers have a goal to have safe products... they read about what isn't safe in the media... if the media doesn't do their job.. they don't get paid because no one buys the paper or visits their news site.... if the business doesn't make good products.. the media finds them.. if the consumer reads the media article.. and finds the product shoddy.. then they don't buy the product.. in essence.. it works out for everyone.. if they all do their job.. where it fails is if the business pushes out crap.. the media reporting is crap.. and the consumers don't read papers or news outlets.. that is a bad day.
