If the Kroger-Albertsons merger goes through, that combined company + Walmart would control 70% of the grocery market in over 160 cities.

Without competition, it would be a price gouging free-for-all.

This is why the FTC is suing to stop it.

@rbreich @zeldman Oh yeah, stop this! NZ has two chains, like Aus, and it’s bad.
