You might enjoy this take on competition.

Lieber, James B. 2000. Rats in the Grain: The Dirty Tricks of the
'Supermarket to the World'. Archer Daniels Midland (NY: Four Walls
Eight Windows).

p. 10: The company leaders would say, "The competitor is our friend

Fortunately, the government did not approve of this behavior, but the
culprits got off easily.  Only the whistle blower was punished.
