Do you have Flight Time & Duty Limitations imposed on you by your regulatory authority
Certainly.
which are so restrictive that neither the pilots nor the operators have any intention of even trying to abide by them?
They are restrictive, that is the designed function. I do not think they are that restrictive.
Is your regulatory authority so toothless that they allow such a situation to continue?
I wouldn't say that. I do know an individual who was invited to resign by the company he worked for after it was discovered he had been 'fiddling' the books. For quite some time I am led to beleive.
Do you have a story to tell?
What's up sunshine? You been castigated for ignoring/bending/breaking rules and looking for solace?
