I wish my airline was also a "vertical monopoly" capable of doubling the fares and posting a quarterly ten billion dollar profit under the facade that: "It's just supply and demand everybody; can't help it!" But then, silly me..... We don't have airline CEO's in the administration......

Opec puts out only about 25% of world oil, but dictates prices to everybody. This is a free market?
