We don't have a law against monopoly in America. We have a law against monopolizing. (...) Nothing can be in fact more competitive than attempting to monopolize the market. You can argue that's why the anti-trust laws has been used so perversely. (...) they're using the laws against the most competitive firms in this sense that they've been trying to monopolize markets, which is a very competitive process.
