I always thought with increased competition the rake would drop? Where are the posters that have an economics degree, please tell us how Pacific Poker(and other sites) is defying the laws of economics?

Sorry, they are not defying the laws of economics.
Baaah, Baaah, people are sheep. Did you stop driving your car when gas in the US jumped to $3.50 a gallon?

no, but if there were 50 other gas stations selling it for $2.50 I would probably buy from them.

Do fish look at a room's website for the rake schedule? Do they look in their Poker Tracker software for total rake paid (wait, no PT)?
Probably 90% of online players have no clue of the real effect of the rake. I'm sure many of them are so desensitized to seeing $2 or $3 going up next to the dealer that they don't even think of what their share of this represents.
