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?).
