War on mergers? What in the absolute fuck are they going on about? Our government has never been more friendly to mergers. We need to be breaking corporations up left right and center not approving more mergers.
These fuckers aren’t going to be happy until there’s just one mega corp that owns literally everything (including the government).
Welcome to Costco, i love you
But that means just one CEO…😎
Welcome to the BnL superstore. Axoim to be built at a later date
Think of the savings on lead costs! That alone is worth it.

“We’re calling the corporation: X”
This is just straight up misinformation. Lina Khan’s FTC was extremely hostile to large mergers, frequently suing to stop them, and that’s a very good thing. They also were working on several large antitrust cases, including one that they won against Google. They are literally in the process of breaking up a monopoly as I write this.
All of that is going to get flushed down the fucking toilet now that the Republicans are back in. Good job America.
The Albertson merger was just stopped

Of all the terrible things he’ll do, this one was at least happening either way. Lina Khan was also on the shitlist of all the billionaires supporting Harris, with supposed “good billionaires” like Mark Cuban directly calling for her removal.
It was a nice 4 years of having a functional FTC, but it immediately scared the ruling class enough that it had no hope of survival.
Nothing I hate more than ppl claiming there are “good” billionaires. A good billionaire would spend all their money lobbying congress to stop billionaires from being a thing in general
They’re just inventing grievances now. It’s so rare that any huge merger actually gets stopped, it’s insane. We need more trust busting not less
It’s not an invention, but a reframing of the class war.
The very tame attempts at more stringent anti-trust enforcement by the Biden administration already triggered them to no end.
Working class Trump voters must be forming a bit of shocked Pikachu faces that their favorite price gougers are gonna be merging.
I’m just kidding, this news won’t reach Fox.
“Obama is forcing new conglomurate WalMart-Target to sell bread for 50 dollars a slice!”
Thanks Obama!
