The editorial board of the TIMESLedger in Queens, New York, today urged the Federal Trade Commission to "draw the line between free enterprise and monopolies," and to "come down on the side of the consumer" by blocking the proposed Express Scripts and Medco merger.

The editorial follows a rally in Queens earlier this month during which state and local officials and local residents voice opposition to the pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) mega-merger.
