What would you call the group of 8 directors on Main Street?

They act like a drug cartel when one tries to leave or dissent - ask the former Chair..

They think they have world market power as in OPEC.

They reduce individual profit by reducing competiton.

What think?

And what would you call a group that believe they have a god given right to take control of your property.

The CWB is not a cartel, they collude with no one or price fix. They are government policy. Very different.

Good book to read is "The Informant" by Kurt Eichenwald. The story of alleged collusion and price fixing by ADM.

WD9:

If you liked that book you should read "Rats in The Grain" by James Lieber.

Shall give it a read. Thx.
