    The FTC is also opposing the kroger/albertsons merger, healthcare office mergers under private equity, along with sueing google and and amazon, and more.

    They literally are currently opposing mergers in all of the above and trying to break up current monopolies.

      Until the next administration just rubber stamps everything, and then it’s too late because – reasons.

        That’s a flaw with our government, not the efforts of our current FTC.

          What tautological shit does that mean? The FTC is literally the government.

            This FTC, in the current administration, is doing good work. If its forced not to do good work in a new administration, it is not the fault of the FTC itself.

            Lambast our system of goverment all you like. Its certainly earned it. It does not make the FTC, who is hard at work, somehow at fault.
