You can often tell whether something is good or bad based on if the media hates it. For instance, the media hates Biden's withdraw from Afghanistan, while supporting Trump when he bombed Syria.
Essentially if the media hates something then it's probably good, and visa versa.

In a similar vein, you can tell whether something is important or not based on if the media talks about it. If the media ignores something then it's often important. For example, the media's refusal to talk about the link between capitalism and the destruction of the environment.
However, the topic I want to talk about is the Biden Administration's antitrust policy.

I’ve covered lots of administrations, focusing on the regulation of capitalism. And I’ve never seen anything remotely like this.

Start with the resurrection of antitrust, left for dead after Robert Bork got through with it in the Reagan era. The incomparable Lina Khan heads the FTC, and another stalwart, Jonathan Kanter, will be assistant attorney general for antitrust.

Khan, while still in her 20s, wrote the authoritative law journal article on how antitrust could be applied to the big platform monopolies. And Kanter is the lawyer you retain when your company is being savaged by one the monopolies Khan describes. It doesn’t get any better.

Meanwhile, Tim Wu, one of the smartest big-picture competition policy people in the world, coordinates this stuff at the White House, while Bharat Ramamurti, former chief economic adviser to Elizabeth Warren, handles it at the National Economic Council. There has been nothing like this since the Roosevelt era.

The news is equally good on the financial regulation front, where one top job after another has gone to progressives. The latest two such posts about to be filled are Graham Steele to be assistant secretary of the treasury for financial institutions, and Saule Omarova to be comptroller of the currency, the key regulator of national banks.

This Treasury job, even under Democrats, usually goes to people congenial to Wall Street. Steele is different. He has been chief banking counsel to Sen. Sherrod Brown, and currently heads the Corporations and Society Initiative at Stanford Law School. He once worked for Public Citizen (yes, that Public Citizen.) He is a major proponent of tougher regulation under existing Dodd-Frank provisions, including greater attention to the risks in bank investments in carbon related industries.

That may sound like too good to be true, and normally you would be correct to be very skeptical.
But this isn't one of those times. You can tell by the response from the financial media.

The federal government stopped enforcing antitrust laws back in the Reagan Administration, and no administration since then, neither Democratic or Republican, has been incline to change that.
Until now. Republicans wouldn't have a problem with this, except that the monopolies in the tech sector tend to lean Democratic. This opens the bipartisan window to fighting the monopolies that afflict every sector of our economy. This has led to the FTC officially calling Facebook a monopoly and seeking to break them up.
Breaking up the monopolies are essential, not just for our economy, but for our political system as well.
