摘要

When the federal government pushed, Michael J. Daugh-erty pushed back. Although many people find themselves in a losing battle when they draw the unwarranted scrutiny of a leviathan agency like the Federal Trade Commis sion, Daugherty's case comes with a special twist - he's winning for his small company, LabMD.He's not surprised if others find that astonishing: Small businessmen like Daugherty face a seemingly insurmountabletask when the FTC launchesan investigation.Daugherty, author of the book, The Devil Inside theBeltway, says, "FTC agents come after businesses, large and small, while failing to verify the information they rely on for their investigations. If I had not fought back and done some investigating myself, this case wouldn't be where it is today."
