I think it's an illegal move. It's called collusion. You can't make agreements in the US to squeeze out the other guys buy controlling the market.

I don't think it meets the legal requirement for collusion (but I'm not an attorney). Collusion involves fraud. Nobody is saying the straps can't exist, only that they agree not to talk about them.

Collusion is the just the word I to describe the behavior. What it's actually called is "Antitrust Laws". Basically they are in place to keep corporations and the like from joining forces to for out the competition. Another word is called monopoly. It doesn't have to involve fraud to be illegal.

Please refrain from discussing the law if you are not an attorney.

I'm a tax and estate planning attorney and I myself try to not make statements about other areas of the law, especially specialized areas such as anti-trust law.

Huh? Or what?

Can you please refrain from telling other posters what they can discuss if you are not their parent or legal guardian.

I have discussed topics on these boards for many years with over 20,000 posts and I myself try not to make statements dictating what others can talk about.

Pretty sure they were some power-pop band out of Sweden in the late 70's- early 80's
