Registries

Large national "all-breed" registries have created the purebred dog fancy as we know it today. They regulate dog shows, license show judges, bestow titles, recognise breeds, recognise other registries, identify foundation stock and generally control the overall structure of dog breeding. Should registries have that much power and control over dog breeding and breeders? Would our dogs be better off with single-breed registries instead of these massive, powerful national all-breed registries? Or is there a more radical solution that would totally eliminate registry politics?
