MBA w/ 30+ years running a business: "We need to hire a consultant to help streamline the manufacturing process of product lines x, y, and z and another to re-vamp the website for mobile accessibility as our sales channels continue to shift to mobile purchases.

The farmers filed suit in 2007, alleging that DFA and Dean conspired to eliminate competition in the Southeast and suppress the prices they would pay farmers for raw milk.
Who filed suit? Farmers who were members of the Co-Ops.
where DFA, a food cooperative that was supposed to represent its 1,700 member farmers, instead made a deal with Dean Foods, a large food company based in Dallas, back in 2001
Not surprising that private business was involved. Do these kind of scenarioās happen often? And this kind of compensation is unlawful unlike private businesses.
Wow, color me impressed you had a real-life example to back your usual hacker up with. Bravo. 
Does this explain why they are more successful than private businesses?
So? What does this prove?
Not this wide in scope.
?
Like Co-Ops?
Told you. Absolute king of dodge and counter

I guess this would explain their 2 to 1 success ratio over private businesses.
Citation needed dipshit - Still waiting on that proof asshole
Heās practiced in it for sure - I wouldnāt say heās particularly good at it. Itās more than obvious to the point of redundancy when he deflects. He canāt even get us talking about something completely off topic or start arguing semantics

Sounds like private businesses.
Co-Ops are superior to unions as the unions must always be on guard of the gains that were made. A constant struggle with management. Co-Ops do not have that problem.
Still waiting.

And I guess this all explains their success ratio over private businesses.
So that makes it okay for co-ops to do it? Da fuck? Youāve been railing on and on about industries monopolizing industries and you just dismiss a legitimate question with āsounds like private businessesā.
Has anyone taken you seriously in your entire life?
Except that Co-Ops own the business. A fundamentally different structure.
It would seem to me that the co-ops would mainly struggle with themselves, generally.
