Abstract | The very week late last fall that megacorporations Exxon and Mobil announced their merger, the FTC could find nothing better to do than to subpoena three low-paid truck drivers for "engaging in unfair methods of competitive pricing." The FTC suspected the three, all "owner-operators" of breaching antitrust law.
