    Why break them up when you can just let them get bigger. I’d bet my job the fucking merger is still happening.

      Of course it’s still happening, this is just a side puppet show to distract from that fact. Now they’ve realized most of the population would vote in an uneducated felon again, so they see they faked having a heart for nothing. Which was cutting into their profits all along.

      Until there’s serious consequences and bankruptcy looming, they’ll continue shitting on us like we’re Japanese businessmen with a fetish.

      Lina Kahn has been going hard after monopolies lately. I will take that bet so long as she is FTC head.

      What merger?

      And Kroger is a monopoly? I see Walmarts everywhere. Target to a lesser extent. Definitely an oligopoly.
