Restraint of Trade

Eli,

I knew you had an inner libertarian in you. 

You should check out the Institute for Justice:

"Founded in 1991, the Institute for Justice is what a civil liberties law firm should be. As our nation's only libertarian public interest law firm, we engage in cutting-edge litigation and advocacy both in the courts of law and in the court of public opinion on behalf of individuals whose most basic rights are denied by the government--like the right to earn an honest living, private property rights, and the right to free speech, especially in the areas of commercial and Internet speech."

I had the sense you were trying to goad me into something, but I'm tired and distracted, so not quite sure.

Anyway, restraint of trade is bad. Government should stop it. Unfortunately, government typically encourages it.
