- munk-a 6y agoI think it's unimpeachable to say that this sort of anti-competitive behavior is to the public detriment but companies continue to pursue it due to the fact that it is an effective (if slimy) way to protect revenue.
- antiterra 6y agoSuccessful may not mean optimal, business clustering is generally considered to provide mutual benefit. I would guess there is a point of diminishing returns, so maybe there’s rational motivation to gatekeep when the cluster hits a certain size. https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=121304873 https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=121304... https://www.planetizen.com/node/65765 https://www.planetizen.com/node/65765
