Obama Against AT&T Merger with T-Mobile

Pres. Obama's Justice Department filed a lawsuit on Aug 31 against the AT&T and T-mobile merger saying that it would lessen competition in the wireless industry and lead to higher prices, poorer quality services, fewer choices, and fewer innovative products. I wonder if they thought about this when creating a government Health system? Ironic they use this rationale to oppose the merger. Is there any Republican analytical enough to see the obvious.
