“This bill certainly benefits large companies with the facilities to absorb similar firms. However, it shows a lack of care for small businesses who will find it difficult to compete against multi-firm giants, and we cannot allow the economy to be dominated by the same select group of massive companies.”

“We should give large corporations an inch when it comes to economic centralization, they will indeed take a mile if we do.”
