Mr Guru, Re: "Why is it so hard to understand that competitors, like consumers, can be harmed ..." Now we finally get to your wanting to use anti-trust laws to protect competitors. Weren't you the one that posted --> Message 25550230 "A) Surely you're not accusing me of promoting the idea that antitrust law protects competitors and not the process of competition? Because I've made the distinction many times in the history of this thread." It's the difference between explicit and implicit protection. It's not rocket science, and even the USDOJ Antitrust Division says it's so. If only consumers were protected by antitrust laws, and competitors were not entitled to any relief from abusive monopolies, why allow them to file antitrust lawsuits and claim damages? fpg
