I can't believe that would apply, since that would effectively abolish
the postal service (competes with FedEx, UPS, AirEx...), FEMA
(competes with pretty much any homeowners/renters insurance company)
and Amtrak (competes with most shortline railroads especially along
the east coast...they built Acela on the Northeast Corridor to gain a
competative edge even) right out.
