Clayton or Robinson-Patman?

Spring 2019 #5 states that tying was part of the Clayton act however the wiki article states it is part of the Robinson-Patman act.

Which one is correct?

    Yes, that's correct thanks. Tying should be part of the Clayton Act (not Robinson-Patman). I've fixed the wiki and we will tweet the correction for the main page.

    Sorry, that's a typo in the wiki. "Tying" should be under the Clayton Act. I've corrected it and we'll tweet it.

    Can you please correct the solution for Fall 2013 Question 4b as well.

    Is Tying still illegal? I swear when i was an underwriter I was told not to write property coverage for someone if they were not placing their GL with us as well.

    I found this for Maine:

    Other states may also have a similar approach. I think the level of control of the tying firm over the market is key to defining an act as tying.
