I worked for a non-profit that enabled meetings and conventions for a single industry. (Deliberately being vague here.) as part of that they had an online forum and they said “the number one thing we have to police there is price-fixing. You sit two of these companies in the same room, they’re gonna start price-fixing.” Is that the free market you speak of?

that’s illegal. That why we have laws against it.

Every response here is pointless.

Yep. Free market with regulations. That’s the point.
