LETTER: A needed perspective on grocery merger proposal
I understand the view of those opposing the Kroger-Albertsons merger. However, they have the wrong perspective.
Albertsons’ competition is actually Walmart now, Amazon in the near future and maybe even Google eventually. Companies need to keep up with the economics of the giants in their industry. It will not benefit consumers, if both Kroger and Albertsons each are forced out of business separately.
