The FTC is bringing a lot of cases, not just the few big ones like this that make headlines. The DOJ also brings antitrust cases.

I know, and I applaud the one they recently filed against Anesthesia Partners which is directly at the intersection of PE and healthcare, but they do have limited resources and have to make tough choices about cases they bring and ones they don't, and I wish they would focus on ones that are more impactful for my life (e.g., healthcare, education, housing) than marginal ones like Amazon or the one against Meta acquiring a VR company. I understand their rationale and am generally supportive, I just disagree with the prioritization.
