OT: For an allegedly free-market country ... the USA and companies which live there are decidely un-freemarket in their practises.

Hey Maurice,

Well of course U.S. companies act anti-competitively! Those of us who believe whole-heartedly in free enterprise certainly don't just assume that corporate managers are going to act as principled free enterprisers. Businesses don't want free competition, they want subsidies, preferences, and protected monopolies. It's always been that way, in America and anywhere else:
