Her focus on PBMs was mostly a waste of time. The overcharging she mentioned was 0.3% of PBM revenue. About 0.03% of overall health spending. Hospitals are a much bigger deal.
I wish she could have focused on hospital monopolies, but nonprofits get a big exemption.

Terrible appointment by a dysfunctional administration.

She bungled cases which could have been a succes by adding excessive punishments or unnecesary offenses

Why is this crap upvoted? She was ineffective at best, and was grandstanding for leftist populism at worst.

Biden’s term is over. We don’t need to pretend we liked all of his policies. Big Tech is one of the good things about this country. Thank god Khan wasn’t competent enough to break it up. If MAGA did what Khan did, we’d all be up in arms about government overreach in the economy.

Lina Khan is a clueless clown recommended and appointed by clueless clowns.
Warrencels should be cast into the outer darkness.

Big Tech is good though

I don’t agree with everything Lina Khan did, but she’s 100% correct that big tech is dangerous and monopolistic. I’d go beyond that to say it’s becoming a threat to democracy. We are going to have to address its power in the future if we want a healthy polity.

She wanted to break up tech in ways that would be detrimental or hostile to users. She wanted big tech to break off free to use loss leaders she deemed monopolistic that if ran separately would have to start either charging users to use the services, or shut down.

Being incompetent is not, in fact, neoliberal.
Lina Khan was an incompetent idiot
