    The conclusion drawn from Arnotts Ltd v TPC was it could not be established the appropriate market was wider than just biscuit and subsequently was found to have breach s 50 . Similarly, Cycloplatform cannot claim by acquiring the two competitors it was had a market outside of bike sharing therefore the merger would not be successful. Horizontal mergers have the effects of concentration of market power, facilitating collusive conduct and leading to output restriction. The ACCC would also take into account factors listed in s 50(3) in determining whether the acquisition would likely have the effect of substantially lessening competition. The main problem with horizontal mergers is it not only lessens competition but harms consumers. The remaining firms following the merger have the ability to act in a coordinate manner on certain competitive dimension via coordinated interaction. As the ACCC is most concerned about consumer impacts implications such higher prices, lower quality and a reduction in choice would warrant most horizontal mergers…

    (1)No major social upheaval can be had without negative consequence and, coming on the heels of the most violent war in American History, Reconstruction was no exception. Given the fierce determination of the North to remake southern society and the stubborn ferocity in the south to reclaim their former lives, the African-Americans faced worse and more violent conditions during the Reconstruction period than they had during slavery. The harder the radicals in the north pressed down upon the south, the harder the south resisted. The African Americans were caught in the center. We see in Thomas Nast’s “Worse than Slavery” (p477) a depiction of how white terrorism in the form of the Ku Klux Klan and other white supremists , which the north could do little to suppress and the south felt was their only way to fight back, was actually worse than slavery. However, though many adversities and hardships were faced during Reconstruction, the net result of the effort was a positive one for the African -Americans because they attained freedom, citizenship and voting rights -- the means to improve their lives.…

    On April 1st, 2015, I was fortunate enough to be able to attend the Faculty Recital at the Queensborough Performing Arts Complex. It was an intimate setting, a small crowd of approximately twenty people, gathered to enjoy a midday concert. The crowd was composed mostly of students, as well as, a few older patrons of the arts. I had never been in the theater at the Queensborough Performing Arts Complex before, even though I have been a student at the college for sometime. I was surprised at it’s size, considering it is located in the Humanities building.…

    When I think about credibility I think about honesty, trust, and knowledge. Does this also apply to musical artists? They must be true to what they write about. Could this person be a friend of mine? I would hope that they would be a caring and an honest friend. I like a wide variety of main stream music being released today, but still, there are only a few artists that I will follow no matter what they put out, simply because their music reaches out to to me. I normally do not like it when artists try to impress their fans by acting like someone they are not. An artist must be original—create their own image to the world and along with that, a new, fresh twist on modern music that generally sounds the same. Overall, when listening to an artist, I expect them to have an honest connection with the audience, originality, and above all, be the same person that I fell in love with in the beginning.…

Over the years the FTC has ceased and desisted many mergers between the health care industry and hospitals mainly because of the affect the merger has had on the increase in prescription drug prices.
