Antitrust Myth Busting

Thank you, Aurelien, for that kind introduction, and thank you to the George Washington University Competition and Innovation Lab for inviting me to join you all today.

As this administration continues to lay out our approach to antitrust enforcement, I thought I would take the opportunity to address a few myths that have become unfortunately common. Some myth busting about trust busting, if you will. 

I have five substantive myths in mind, and then one high level policy misperception.
