Actually, it's not. But then again, when you use absolutes, you tend to be wrong a lot.

How do you figure? Perhaps for the competitors it can be a drag, but for consumers, it drives down prices and encourages innovation and enhanced customer service. Granted I have a somewhat biased view -- I'm an attorney that does private antitrust enforcement -- but I have a hard time seeing the "downside" of competition.
Kremmit:
Competition can be bad, example:
Competition forces fast food joints to feed us the very cheapest food they can buy and process. Good burger joints that don't try to compete directly with McDonalds have good food.
You see this all over the restarurant business- competition forces a resturant to degrade quality in order to cut costs. That's why a brand new resturant will often start out with really good food, but when you go back a year later, it just isn't as good as you remember- they started buying chepaer "raw materials" because they couldn't compete.
