At what point does the government have to step in to Disney trying to buy another company and say: "You're becoming a monopoly we can't let you do this"

Before Disney can buy the government into their monopoly. Oh wait, too late.

Why doesn't Disney just buy the government.

They don't have to.

Why do we have to have this thread?
Le ebin libertarians and le based government fighting for le ebin politics?
Aren't you tired of hearing the same arguments over and over?

This is not one of those issues where people change their mind.
It's "does God exist" tier skubb with no light at the end of the tunnel and no possibility of debate. Especially here.

>US gov. stepping in to oversee big business
>with GOP in charge

Nice one.

It's called lobbying and it's very effective.

>Gronard Gronpf

When they try to buy CNN or NBC.

Those are the only ones the current administration is bothered by.

Seriously, this deal benefits Fox News via Murdoch’s attention being focused and his wallet expanding. Why the hell would they block it?

You think Trump has a stake on the DC vs Marvel train?

You don't buy American governments. You rent them.

valid point - but the content you chose for the pic makes me think maybe a Disney monopoly wouldnt be so bad as long as edgefest shit like this doesnt see the light of day

You can't get trust-busted for owning too many IPs because there's no limit on how many IPs can exist.

People are allowed to air their grievances, user. Even if it hurts your delicate feelings.

Were not just talking intellectual properties here. These properties are owned by corporations. We’re talking about a mega-corporation buying out other mega-corporations.

never because they don't give a shit. there's already monopolies in the cable, pharmaceutical and insurance industries.

>there's already monopolies in the cable, pharmaceutical and insurance industries.
Name them.

The current GOP is in power & on a deregulation bend. It won't happen.

I wouldn't have let this happen, meine freunde.

>it's a "Sup Forums talks about things they don't understand" episode

You guys have no idea how economies work. Shut up.

The fact you're asking this shows how little you're informed on the subject, or you've never had a medical bill over $100.

Lmao, that's why US will be raplced by China in 50 years at best, your goverment is corrupt as fuck.

Now you got the entire entertaiment industry of US in the hands of DIsney and Disney needs China to keep being alive.You're already their bitches just like Disney is.

It only matters if they grab a larger share of distribution. Choking off consumers' choice is what brings down the hammer. Simply owning, creating, or buying a large number of subsidiaries isn't enough to trigger any action.

Nazis had the first broadcast television system in the world and it was all 100% propaganda. You can bet a national socialist model would've been a monopoly.

Explain it to us then, professor.

Notice how you haven’t produced any names.

You don't know what a monopoly is.Shut UP

verizon, comcast, AT&T, Cox in my area.

cable companies create non-interference agreements and then pricegouge people into oblivion. First it was with television channels and now its with internet speeds.

live saving diabetic medication has had its price increased in upwards of 1000% because there's no one else who can legally produce it. Same with epipens for bee allergies.

don't really need names its easy enough to see the effects in the wider market.

I vould have nationalized all ze proper media services, and yes, ze nation is ze state.

fuck off, frenchie

>and now its with internet speeds.
You got nobody to blame for that but yourselves, you lazy fat bastards.

I welcome Disney to buy everything.

I want to see the next Kingdom Hearts having every single iconic USA IP being represented as a single world. It will be Sora's Odyssey, that never ends.

...

The State is the servant of the Nation, fuck off.

kay thanks man.
back off to infowars or wherever.

Pathological optimism like yours will be the end of our god given rights.

He's probably shitposting user

Please name for me one antitrust or anti-monopoly action that Obama undertook.

That makes it even worse.

I believe Richard Stallman who once suggested that 'the top five companies in a given industry should not be allowed to merge'.

It’s pretty obvious he is.
When did Sup Forums suddenly take everything seriously?

Fox WANTED Disney to buy them. Blame the Merdox for being shitty people. Blame them for not just selling the Marvel rights back.

DHMIS is too edgy for you?
Jesus christ, you probably were one of those kids that thought the 'wormy' episode of spongebob was scary.

Who is this name fag and why is he everywhere lately?

>Why doesn't Disney just buy the government.
Don't they basically have the officials of the counties where their parks are on the pocket?

I think he's making the point that THE PEOPLE MAKING IT think its edge. And thats what makes it shit.

fuck off with the namefagging, cunt

I won't. Obama was an ineffective president and democrat.

>the two worst states in america have what are essentially city-states run by disney in them
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

You don't either since this acquisition doesn't leave Disney with a monopoly.

This entire thread is just people talking their asses off about shit they don't understand, so how about you shut up?
