If Chuck Norris had been in charge of EU competition law in the past, he would have introduced a very succesful self-incrimination programme that stipulates treble fines for breaches of the competition rules.

Best Chuck Norris antitrust quote: ”My vision of tomorrow for Intel, here and now; obey the law“.
Or was this Neelie Kroes???

The only reason why MOFCOM is not part of the ICN is because the Chinese have not yet translated Chuck Norris’ off-hand 1984 remark: “Violence is my last option.”

Following yet another complaint, the Commission asked Google why Chuck Norris did not feature in search results.
Google replied: You don’t find Chuck Norris; he finds you.

(Ahem, let’s try one)
Chuck Norris doesn’t break Commission seals, Commission seals remove themselves when Chuck Norris tells them to do so.

Breaking news : “Chuck Norris appointed Head of the Unit in charge of beatdown and roundhouse kicks. Stay tuned for updates on Chuck Norris’ first steps in DG Comp”.
Chuck Norris can divest assets with a side kick.
Chuck Norris can stop a merger with a finger.
Should Chuck Norris be director of DG Comp, no leniency would be granted, because Chuck Norris shows no mercy.

All purchases of shares made by Chuck Norris are notifiable to the Commission as they always result in a change of control.

If Chuck Norris was subject of an antitrust investigation, he would not settle with the Commission. The Commission would settle with him, and beg for mercy…

If Chuck Norris was in a cartel, the Commission would beg him for leniency.

If Chuck Norris was in charge of the Antitrust regulation, all cases would be ruled in a BBQ Bar, Nacogdoches, TX
Chuck: “You want a win-win position? Haha!”

What’s the difference between Chuck Norris and the Commission? None, they both prosecute and adjudicate the villains, normally showing little mercy for them. And, they would eventually seek to obtain compensation from them, if they are still around and not gone bankrupt!

In a revolving-door scenario, if Google had retained Chuck Norris to deal with the Commission, Mr. Almunia would have stated: “On a second thought, we see no real problems so far. We took issues because our products (read decisions) did not show up among the first ten results in Google’s search engine. But our Chief Economist told us it was our fault. We are going to improve the product, so that our customers are satisfied. Our competitors (read NCAs) are making our life hard these days… But hei! Summertime is at the door!”
Enjoy your summer guys (this wish is mine, not Almunia’s)

Chuck Norris has been working for the Higher Regional Court of Düsseldorf. That’s why the Court can delinate the relevant geographic market BEFORE delineate the relevant product market.
