Question 1
I'm still stuck on how embedding service in with United Shoe's leases was anti-competitive. I get that the lease was, but what is inherently anti-competitive to other shoe machinery sellers about offering a service with your lease? After all the lease was the industry standard since the civil war. I do get that this clause limited a third party service industry, but I don't understand how it was anti-competitive with regard to other shoe machinery manufacturers.
