I’m always glad to see the government go after a consolidated vertical monopoly like these assholes. It is part of the government’s damn job, afterall.
But it kind of feels like it’s a play for optics when there are much larger issues.
Its weird how a large group of people such as the federal government can work on more than one thing at a time.
Just because you dont know all the other things happening doesnt mean theyre not.
Dear US government, please stop climate change. I don’t even go to concerts. I would feel bad about the gas it takes to get there
And it’s weird how these things almost always get killed by someone like Joe Manchin or the SCOTUS in spite of all the hard work of those good people. Try to pay more attention to what is actually going on.
They are supposed to stop it looooong before it gets to this stage. Have one or more companies formed powerful trusts that give them significant power over a market? Break them apart and bust them open.
Instead, we twiddle our thumbs while bootlicking white knites tell you it’s not a monopoly because there are TWO trusts cornering entire markets.
It’s madness.
Every broken up company is a victory
Been calling that this would happen in 2024 (election year) for 3 years now. It’s the one thing all Americans agree on. But no matter the reason it’s a good thing. Hopefully something actually happens.
If it’s not dismantling that god forsaken monopoly, it’s not enough.
Can we focus on the cost of food and housing before entertainment?
He’s doing that too.
I’d rather have healthcare
Actually scratch that, the climate is the bigger issue.
Let’s have all three. They are not conflicting goals.

Support small indie bands. No need for big businesses crap.
Finally. They listened! I’m so glad they finally are tackling this important problem. It is far more important than starving millions of people in a foreign country to support genocidal fascists.
Yes! I’m so glad the Biden administration decided that they can only tackle one issue at a time!111ii1!
And nobody was ever hurt by a monopoly!!! Let’s abandon all regulations and become ancaps!!!
Weed, loans, and concert tickets.
But not fixing shit.
Democrats trying to buy the election as predicted. Fucking earn it dipshits.
“Buy the election” = giving citizens things they want/need with their tax money
What an absolutely stupid statement you’ve made, friend. This would be so embarrassing if you had any self awareness.
Weed/Ticketmaster could and should have been done the forst yeat, as was promised. Not waiting until the clock is running out and he is not polling well.
It is the saving it until he needs the bump, and not doing it when it could/should have been done, is why i will detest voting for him.
Its not about principle at all. Its just about retaining power while keeping their choke leash on the people.
What does fixing shit mean to you?
Lobbiest Money out of politics.
Revert citizens united via legislation.
Codify human rights not specifically granted by amendments via legislation.
Judicial audit.
Shift social welfare programs to UBI approach
Stop breaking the USPS and Education system (yeah…)
Build domestic manufacturing and supply chains.
Tax system rebalancing.
And some other shit.
And you think that is going to happen with republicans in power?
