Discussion: "Monopolies"
Respond to the following:
• In today's economy, there are a wide number of powerful companies who from all appearances control massive segments of different markets. Using the Internet, identify one example of a large company that has (or might be) engaged in anti-competitive behavior. Next, suggest three ways that this behavior could be viewed as either a horizontal or vertical restraint of trade. Provide support for your response.
• In your response to another student, take a contrary view and discuss why you believe the behavior identified could be deemed as not being a restraint of trade. Justify your response.
