Tacit Collusion: a type of collusive behavior where firms coordinate their actions without explicitly communicating or reaching an agreement. Instead, firms may signal their intentions through various actions, such as pricing behavior or output levels, in order to coordinate their behavior and achieve higher profits.
In Canada, when one of the three cellphone carriers raise their prices, the other two raise theirs immediately.
Gas stations are a big one here in the US. Why would one keep their price lower when the one across the street is charging 15 cents more per gallon?
i love the crtc
what a wonderful institution
collusive radio and telecommunications council
I think fornal "business" schooling has led to this. If everyone has the same playbook, it's easy to make the same plays without it being collusion
It would still be collusion with that example of yours. Especially if it's a method that is being taught.
If that were the case, companies would go down left right and center. What do you think the gas stations are doing? Landlords? Companies hiring devs? Everything is becoming lockstepped and thats why we are losing.
We need to break up businesses above 999 mil in assets (including other companies) and break up entry barriers for new businesses. Amend the laws to exclude large companies from any securities so it is actually too risky to become this big.
Its not really hard to do but people need to stop working for a day every month to push this. Take to the streets and unionize en masse.
Everyone who is not part of a union is part of the problem at this point.
