During the Progressive Era, political leaders instituted policies designed to empower average Americans and curtail the power of

large business interests. In the course of US history, the pendulum has swung between increasing government regulation of big business and leaving it free to grow as it will. In your lifetime, what decisions has the government made about increasing or decreasing this type of regulation? What have been the effects of those decisions? Compare the issues and outcomes to those of the early twentieth century decisions to regulate big business in the Progressive Era. You might also consider whether the media serve a similar "muckraking" role in causing this pendulum to swing one way or another.

Answer:

so basically u can just pick and choose what info u want to use:

During the Progressive Era between 1896–1916, social activism and political

reform became widely renowned and certain laws were set in place to

keep large businesses in check, such as the Pendleton Act. This act made

it unlawful to fire or demote an employee based on political stance. This

makes me think about a more recent act that was passed called The

Americans with Disabilities Act. which not only provides equal treatment to

disabled persons in day-to-day life but is also, similar to the Pendleton Act.

as it protects persons with diabilities from being fired or demoted without

reasonable cause.

wait nvm thats not really on topic....

During my lifetime the government has more or less decreased the

regulations set in place to keep large businesses in check. When looking at

certain acts like the 1938 Fair Labor Standards Act, which was updated in

2017, makes it so that all workers in the US are paid minimum wage up to

the national minimum wage, along with other benefits. However, debates

on whether minimum wage is truly a livable wage have been brought up.

This then allows many large businesses to exploit and go around this law,

allowing them to grow bigger and bigger.
