Since they have done a great job dealing with big oil, big tobacco, big ag, big pharma, big banks, big auto, big telco, big media, big soda, big accounting, the mil complex etc I shall not be holding my breath.

The US political class is bought and paid for. They exist to do what the corps want. There is a good reason Tim Wu quit. Its a non contest.

For banks and accounting, the U.S. is marginally pro-consolidation. But oil is fractured (lol). Tobacco is, in America, tightly regulated and also fractured. Auto is full of upstarts. Telco and media are being transformed from several directions, including, also, by upstarts. And I’m not sure why soda is a priority.
