I would concentrate on this ~~> "studies show consolidation often leads to higher prices and worse service."
The question is asking for your opinion (backed up, of course, by data and any other solid information) — should competition be preserved? If you agree, then you are arguing for competition and against consolidation. That means you'd be arguing for "tougher anti-trust enforcement against companies that seek to avoid competition."
Does that make sense? I hope so!
I am having a hard time understanding the following question. I thank you for your help.
Directions: Read the following paragraph and then answer the question that follows it.
With countless mergers in recent years between hospital systems, health insurers, pharmaceutical corporations, and others, health care has become increasingly consolidated. Unfortunately, bigger is not always better for consumers; studies show consolidation often leads to higher prices and worse service. More scrutiny of health care mergers and tougher anti-trust enforcement against companies that seek to avoid competition could make a big difference.
Should there be a preservation on competition?
