Noah Phillips of the Federal Trade Commission brings his expertise to the Remnant today for an exceedingly wonky discussion of American law and bureaucracy. The debate over Big Tech has whipped up plenty of discussion about antitrust reforms recently, but how effective could such reforms actually be? For that matter, how problematic are monopolies? Is the FTC in good shape? And how can the harmful effects of social media be mitigated?

Show Notes:

• Noah’s FTC webpage

• Sen. John Cornyn booed at Texas GOP convention

• Amy Klobuchar’s self-preferencing bill

• Hipster antitrust

• Scott Lincicome on the Jones Act
