I've actually thought about this. But there are cases when mergers can help customers. E.g. when a vertical merger happens, that can absorb some of the profit margins between a supplier and manufacturer. Ideally, regulators should analyze the market for problematic dynamics. But I agree that the vast majority of mergers that make the news are not good for consumers.
