  No, no jail. Instead we’re going to let them merge with Albertsons. So now twice as many grocery stores can price gouge.

    I know it’s easy to be cynical, but isn’t all this coming out specifically because the FTC under the Biden Administration sued to stop this merger? Credit where credit is due for that.
