Well yeah they have money, but if congress decides theyre a threat to the free market it probably wont matter, legally speaking. And maybe not the Trump administration, but it could easily be a focal point for a future administration.

How do they have monopolies? Literally any service you can identify with one has an independent equivalent somewhere.

Nah, they should merge them all into one entity, not break them up silly.

Or maybe they should break them up while simultaneously merging together in secret.

Guess the only way we can do it is reserrect Teddy Roosevelt from the grave. Our current government all the way up to the Supreme Court are bought and half of the normal populace are brainwashed to suck corporate dick as much as the politicians. At least the politicians get paid for it though.
