The correct answer is he broke up the Northern Securities Company.

Theodore Roosevelt was the "trust-buster" that is he broke up monopolies and the Northern Securities Company was a railroad trust that consisted of E. H. Harriman, James J. Hill, J.P. Morgan and of course those who worked with them. They were the first company that was sued in 1902 under Sherman Antitrust Act which was enforced by Justice Department who were working under orders by Theodore Roosevelt.

What role did advertising play in transforming america into a consumer society?
Neko [114]
During and after WWI, America experienced rapid growth due to the fact that pretty much the rest of the western civilization was demolished. American businesses were selling to Europe, and obviously earned a lot of profit. There was a lot of opportunity, and people wanted to spend their extra money on fun things. Advertisers and Marketers capitalized on that, and started a shift into more consumeristic thinking. With the advent of electricity, tons of home appliances were created and marketed, emphasizing the "buy now and pay later" approach. With all of the kitchen appliances, the era of domesticity ended, and women were free to go do other things such as have jobs or pursue fun activities.
The economy thrived, money was created out of nothing (compound interest, etc), which lead to a bubble and eventual collapse in 1929.
Hope this helps! :)
