Co-operation, Collusion, or Conspiracy by GEORGE RICHARDSON
In our determination to foster the healthy economic effects of competition, we have developed an almost ideological resistance to monopolies, price rings, and agreements among manufacturers Far from always being ' in the public interest.' George Richardson argues, this article of faith may well diminish the benefits to be obtained from economic planning and may even, in certain cases, be actually harmful to the economy.
