Microsoft Suit Unfair, Hurtful

* Anyone who owns any tech stocks or mutual funds has lost a lot of money in the last few weeks. Some would say the government’s actions against Microsoft have precipitated this drop.

What I want to know is why--when every major bank in Los Angeles has recently merged not just once but even twice, to say nothing of phone mergers, food mergers, supermarket mergers--has the government singled out Microsoft when the rest of the economy is exempt from antitrust laws?

So far a lot of people have suffered from the Microsoft suit.
