January/February Issue is NOW LIVE

Zephyr Teachout, law professor and author of Break ’Em Up: Recovering Our Freedom From Big Ag, Big Tech, and Big Money, examines monopoly power and how the incoming administration can do something about it in this issue’s cover story.

A Blueprint for a Trust-Busting Biden Presidency

“The opportunity that Biden and the Democrats need to seize here stems from the basic fact that antitrust politics is not like other politics. Traditional left and right loyalties simply do not hold within its orbit. The economic populists of the right hate corporate monopolies as much as working-class progressives and immigrant small-business owners do. It’s not for nothing that Ted Cruz keeps yelling about monopolies—or that Trump, when he first campaigned in 2016, and when he was clearly losing in 2020, turned to attacking corporate monopolies.”
