Let's also note what the consumer welfare standard is NOT: it is not a narrow concern with price. As Judge Bork wrote, it encompasses “innovation, choice among differing products" and quality. That more than covers the ways in which markets like Big Tech are failing us. 3/5 — PolitiTweet.org

What is the consumer welfare standard? It's a guardrail that ensures 1) the primary beneficiaries of the antitrust laws are the people, not big business; and 2) that unelected judges are not allowed to use antitrust to advance their own political preferences. 2/5 — PolitiTweet.org

We need the enforcers to (finally) enforce the antitrust laws against those who harm competition and consumers, including Big Tech. But we need to do it in a way that doesn't allow judges to usurp Congress's legislative role. 4/5 — PolitiTweet.org
