How would an ideal (non-real world) anti-trust law differ in its
treatment of implicit and explicit collusion? By treatment, you
can include the illegality, the punishments or any evidential thresholds
in your ideal law. [Only the law is ideal, it should face the
type of firm behaviors we see in the US economy.] Justify your
answer. Explain the differences in how these types of collusion
present themselves to either regulators who must decide which
cases to investigate and the courts. Are there any issues with
handling implicit collusion more aggressively than the current law
does?

What types of institutions does this central bank have to affect the working of the economy (just as an example, are there groups like the FOMC in the country you have chosen).

A) Why are the most commonly used medications for treating patients with a-fib not antidysrhythmic drugs (i.e., they are not intended to alter the rhythmicity of the heart)?

B) What are the notable differences in patient education a nurse should provide to patients discharged with prescriptions for warfarin, enoxaparin, and rivaroxaban (i.e., what is particularly different about these three medications that a patient should know about to correctly take and monitor the side effects of each drug)?
