Well, if the penalty for an antitrust violation is a penny for every billion dollars made while screwing mom and pops small businesses and destroying competition, then there might as well be no anti trust laws at all. They just don't work. Why should I care about a fine if it's only 0.001% of what I made while commiting the violations.
