The DOT regulated junk fees. Airlines are suing.

Medicare is negotiating drug prices. Pharma is suing.

@rbreich I wonder what the 1% and richest corporations would do if they had all the wealth? Would they be happy or would they fight amongst each other until there was only one? Would be alone with everything make them satisfied? I doubt it but maybe they’d finally feel fulfilled.

@rbreich They don't want the consumer to have any power or breaks.
Sadly, our Supreme Court will probably allow the corporations to get away with it-mostly because they're bought off as well..Thomas and Alito.

@rbreich We need to start nuking corporations when they step out of line.

Dissolve their charters, expropriate their assets, and jail their CEOs and board members.

@rbreich All these extra judicial courts that the venal lame-brained politicians keep signing the country up to. UK is no different. Total shitshow.

@rbreich
I think it is more of a matter of socialism. The GOP defined socialism as where the government picks the winners and losers in the economy.
Well, the GOP seems content to allow billionaires to keep winning at the expense of working people. The GOP gives the "successful" many tax breaks to increase their success. The GOP allows larger companies to buy smaller companies so the larger company can limit innovation. Republicans are actually socialist.
