In 2015, global mergers and acquisitions reached $4.9 trillion which made it the biggest year for corporate consolidation in the history of the world. Critics argue that huge corporate mergers create monopolies which prevent competition. Proponents of mergers argue that governments should not interfere with corporations and the free market should be allowed to run its own course.

Yes, yet the government should allow the free market to remain free but always stop monopolies. In regards to this, if the merger controls a monopolistic percentage (50% or more) of the market then they should have regulation on it. The government should also encourage smaller businesses to open so there’s more competition in the market.
