I cannot for the life of me imagine how you could read her and come to your conclusion. Does she need to provide footnotes pointing to the anti-trust laws themselves to satisfy you? Do those laws not allow for prosecution in the event of under, equal, and overcharging? Is she appealing to emotion when she asks readers to use reason instead of emotion, and are you aware that she does? Can you not find real world examples akin to her fictional events and see that her conclusions bear like fruit in reality? Your analysis is baffling. I suspect you do not comprehend her message- and so are offering criticism from the shakiest of ground. It seems to me I must agree- your logic is not the strongest- where Rand is concerned.

Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal (ISBN: 0-451-147952) Signet Book, by Ayn Rand & contributing writers , non-fiction, non-novel Chapter 3: America's Persecuted Minority: Big Business Numerous case studies of gov't abuse of anti-trust laws Chapter 4: Antitrust, by Alan Greenspan The book costs approximately 6 bucks -- $6 more expensive than Microsoft's Internet Explorer (and since last month, Netscape as well)-- but I think it's worth the money. Hope you find illuminating.
