On: Ask HN: What Happened to Borland?

[Ansil849]

Again...you are acting as if the people being hired are...what? Not humans with free will?

[blagie → Ansil849]

Shoppers buying lower-priced products at a giant retailer moving into a new market are also humans with free will. It's the rational choice.

Once the store drives local businesses out, prices go up.

That's why this kind of behavior is unlawful.

I don't understand your analogy. Are you saying once Microsoft drives Borland out it will...cut salaries?...raise prices?
