Wow, what is up with all these buy outs/mergers this year.

Comcast buys out Time Warner

Google/YouTube buys Twitch

and now THIS :O

This and the Time Warner aquisition almost certainly should have been broken up by the government. There's almost no major competitors left.

But the government forcing companies in a direction is Un-American =O

They do it all the time. I believe they should be lessiez-fair with business because most times the government gets involved they make the matter worse.
