The Sherman Anti-Trust Act outlawed monopolistic business practices.

The Sherman Anti-Trust Act  was the first measure by Congress to prohibit trusts. It was passed by Congress in 1890.  A trust was when  stockholders in multiple  companies transferred their stock shares to a single group of trustees. Thus a whole industry area could be dominated by a single "trust" organization, destroying the free market of business competition. . This was a monopolistic practice which the Sherman Anti-Trust Act ended.

Edward snowden is he a traitor or a hero
larisa [96]
Hero to me, but by law is is a traitor. Is Edward Snowden, the twenty-nine-year-old N.S.A. whistle-blower who was last said to be hiding in Hong Kong awaiting his fate, a hero or a traitor? He is a hero. In revealing the colossal scale of the U.S. government’s eavesdropping on Americans and other people around the world, he has performed a great public service that more than outweighs any breach of trust he may have committed. Like Daniel Ellsberg, the former Defense Department official who released the Pentagon Papers, and Mordechai Vanunu, the Israeli nuclear technician who revealed the existence of Israel’s weapons program, before him, Snowden has brought to light important information that deserved to be in the public domain, while doing no lasting harm to the national security of his country.

ad-work [718]
  Nixon and Wallace took advantage of the rising discontent among the conservatives and positioned themselves as defenders of property rights. The increasing level of violent protests had served to aggravate equal feelings against the civil right movements especially among conservative supporters.
