How did they fail you?

By neutering consumer choice, neutering consumer protections, killing smaller business, making it hard for new companies to compete/innovate, etc.
And this has what to do with the MGM acquisition?
in the sense that some corporation is turning into the real world equivalent of the fictional Buy N Large from the movie Wall-E
I have no opinion on this matter, but I assume the parent implies that those agencies should not have approved this deal.
they created a american oligarchy thats as bad as the russian one

justify it how ever you want, same result

You have no fucking idea what you are talking about.

My wife had to flee Russia at 14 because a rival oligarch decided to try and force her father to sign over his business. 3 employees of theirs, including her personal driver, were shot and killed as part of an intimidation campaign.

Really, fuck you. This doesn’t happen in America, there is no equivalency here.

Did they create the oligarchy or are they a teethless tiger because of it?
