There are bright line antitrust behavior. For example, some drug companies pay other drug companies to delay the launch of their product.

I agree with you directionally but your claim is too strong. We need to have bright line regulations that Veep-like civil servants can’t misinterpret.

I agree there are bright line behavior. In the Boston Globe piece, we discuss that. I have yet to see anyone say self-preferencing should be treated like price fixing instead of like slotting contracts.

Public schools should be subject to antitrust action. Creative destruction has been deterred due to the government school monopoly.
