FTC Chair Lina Khan testifies during oversight hearing by House Judiciary Committee - 7/13/23

I agree with what most of what the ftc has done especially with grocery and healthcare mergers, twitter violations, and junk mail. However all the effort to stop Microsoft and Activision is a complete waste of time. The ftc should focus on more important cases instead of video games.

Why Lina Khan does not go against big box stores like Walmart? Walmart is the cause of many small businesses disappearing, bakeries, pharmacies, tire shops, variety stores, butcher shops, deli, and shops, directly or indirectly. Walmart has created only mediocre jobs, it pays its employees of many years close to minimum wage. Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Salesforce, Slack, and many more big tech companies pay their employees handsomely. We should aks the right question and find out her motivation.

[@drakemrostamiani4945]

Those naive people who think that Lina Khan is going after those big Tech companies because of the unfair competition think twice literally. Number one she has her own personal agenda and that is "A Name For Herself". Number two, everyone seems to forget big tech companies, some Big Box companies have created many good-paying jobs. When was the last time a local coffee shop, a restaurant, a repair shop, or a flower shop hired locals except for family members who get paid cash, so they do not pay personal tax either by the way. Think expansion. Amazon, Microsoft, and Google have expanded their businesses around the world, and as a result, they have created many well-paid jobs period. Small businesses do not have the desire nor the attention to grow their business. Here is another point that you do not see. A lot of other small tech companies, such as cyber security software and marketing software, and small delivery businesses like Intelcom that is based in Surrey Canada, and big delivery businesses like UPS, FedX, and Canada Post not only get business from Amazon, Google, Microsoft but they rely on the revenue of the big tech companies. Now you have to think three times not twice, I gave you three compelling reasons. Cheers
