    Perhaps we shouldn’t have allowed them to merge if we were concerned about competition

      The whole motto of the Rogers merger was “the fuck they gonna do about it?”

      Every single authority that had any influence on the merger at all knew this and is making bank because of it. Of course they won’t do anything to limit how much money can be sequestered out of the real economy and into this monopoly because they’re getting the crumbs.
