How is reducing competition good for consumers? Trump will change his mind when the campaign and/or ballroom check clears.
But but but Trump is a populist and cares about his voters!
Funny how those folks don’t come around any longer. I wonder if they were just in on the scam, or they are just hiding in shame.
Haven’t you seen? Taxpayers are going to pay for the ballroom now. Shocker
How would a merger create millions of jobs and be better for aircraft manufacturing also? Most times with mergers they look at redundancies and there are elimination in employee numbers as well as they would cut the number of routes that they fly and use less planes.
Correct. And because they have fewer distinct entities to collude with, airfare goes up too
This sound good just like reducing competition down to 4 baby formula companies or a hand full of meat processors. NOT!
The 21st century version of monopoly is consolidation!
This is pure unadulterated BS. Concentration and oligopoly is never better for customers. It’s why we have anti-trust laws (and need for them to be enforced).
Can’t trust what a CEO says, especially when said CEO will receive a giant windfall in any merger scenario.
I cannot think of a worse idea. Take two crappy airlines who hate their customers and combine them. they’d have 40% of the market – look out hub cities where fares will skyrocket. No thanks.
