Yes, you are taking this too literally.
Our first amendment right superecedes any law.
What you may be referring to is when competitors in a small market (or in a market with limited
competition) compare their prices behind the scenes in order to keep the prices high. Which is what
the oil companies are often accused of doing (ever wonder why gas prices are usually within a few
cents or even identical between stations even though they're supposed competitors?).
