“Now that Trump has won the election, Lina Khan’s days as head of the Federal Trade Commission are almost certainly numbered. A lot of libertarians and conservatives are pretty happy about this. Khan is a committed leftist, with roots in Yale’s Law and Political Economy Project (see my earlier essay here). She has been an aggressive proponent of antitrust, using her position to closely scrutinize mergers and the market power of big tech corporations. Critics like Reason’s Elizabeth Nolan Brown argue that this has been bad for business and bad for consumers. But I’m not so sure. On their face, a lot of Khan’s reforms seem pretty consumer-friendly.” (11/15/24)
