In theory yes, but in practice every state tolerates price fixing on the
largest scale because it's so hard to prove and the largest corporations have
a lot more lawyer money than the state prosecutors. Actually what we're
talking about here is not making everybody sell a certain vegetable at the
same price. It's about price wars to drive competition out of business and
gain a monopoly - a very UN-free-market type of tactic.
