That's a $350 billion/year industry. It is a huge part of our society whether you think it is or not.
Regardless, such a large acquisition or merger should always be under scrutiny like this. The government should be protecting its citizens from monopolistic and anti-consumer behavior wherever it may pop up. This acquisition clearly has potential for such behavior.
