	Capitalism and Free Competition - Isn't capitalism a system of regulated competition?
		Free competition is the freedom to produce, and the freedom to trade what one has produced, for ones own self-interest, i.e., in the pursuit of ones own happiness.
		Under capitalism, competition is an economic process where men do not compete to put down others, but to raise their self up by creating values which are potentially unlimited, and raising their competitors up in the process.
		Under all collectivist systems competition is a political process where men compete not to create values, but to lobby or kill for positions of political power which they can use to legally extort the wealth of their fellow men.

	Competition Policy
		Although most members have accepted that there is a strong relationship between trade and competition, there is a great deal of controversy on whether or not measures should be taken to create a multilateral set of rules governing competition regulation.
		Many developing countries also disagree with multilateral competition measures because they view them as too intrusive; they believe that competition policy is something that a government should create at its own discretion because such policy depends on a country's unique market conditions.
		Some countries neither vigorously oppose nor endorse the establishment of multilateral competition rules, arguing that more research needs to be done to further illuminate the relationship between trade and competition.

	Competition, by Jack High: The Concise Encyclopedia of Economics: Library of Economics and Liberty
		Competition for scarce resources is the core concept around which all modern economics is built.
		Many critics of capitalism and market economies contend that competition is one of the central evils of the system—that the pursuit of higher profits or higher wages pits people against one another, works to reduce cooperation within society, and makes some people better off only at the expense of others who are made worse off.
		Despite its importance to modern economic life, competition is not the be-all and end-all of economic activity.

		Predicted if competition among rodents is mainly for food, then small granivorous rodent populations would increase in response to removal of larger granivorous rodents.

	Competition
		The conflicting beliefs, that competition serves to drive the advancement of society thereby bringing wealth and happiness, and its counter, that competition acts by bring destruction and suffering are common place within society.
		Destructive competition is competition in which there is a clear winner and loser, where victory is had at the definite detriment of another.
		The only time when constructive competition occurs within a hive is between the male bees during their competition to mate with the queen, and so the wasps, by sacrificing the non-competitive advantage, maintain a greater individual competitive power, and so are able to survive despite the non-competitive strength of the hive.
