What are two competeing industries?

Steel vs. wood vs. aluminum vs., etc. and many other materials.

Oil vs. Electric (as in automobiles) is probably the most compelling. Do you think President Bush fell off the electric Segway people mover on accident? I don't think so. He was protecting his buddies in the oil industry.

I would say the Oil Industry and any other alternative energy industry [like Solar Energy]

pepsi vs coke

Two competing trash companies, Taormina Industries, LLC, and Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc.

Movies and music both provide very different products but vie for the entertainment dollar of the public. I think that would be an example of the type you are after.

---You said competing INDUSTRIES, right? -- Not competing businesses within the same industry. And not conflicts of interest between two industries.

health care providers and insurance companies. one wants to help the other just wants your premiums and then will do everything they can to not pay the provider. LOL
