would not stretch matters to say that the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906 (P.L.
59-384, 34 Stat. 768), also known as the Wiley Act, stands as the most
consequential regulatory statute in the history of the United States.
The act not only gave unprecedented new regulatory powers to the federal
government, it also empowered a bureau that evolved into today's Food and Drug
Administration (FDA).
The legacy of the 1906 act includes federal regulatory authority over
one-quarter of gross domestic product, and includes market gatekeeping power
over human and animal drugs, foods and preservatives, medical devices,
biologics and vaccines. Other statutes (such as the Interstate Commerce Act of
1887, the Sherman and Clayton antitrust laws, and the Federal Trade Commission
Act of 1914) have received more study, but the Pure Food and Drug Act has had
the longest-lasting and most widespread economic, political, and institutional
impact.</span>
It was created because antifederalists (people who opposed having a very strong government) were afraid of their rights being abused. So, they invented the Bill of Rights to make sure that no person could ever do it a second time.

Schenck v. United States 1919 was a landmark decision case that helped to define the limits and reaches of the First Amendment when it pertains to the right to free speech during wartime.
This decision provided further clarity when pertaining to when the government is allowed to limit free speech.
Charles Schenck was arrested for distributing flyers that urged young men to resist the draft. Shenck was found guilty of performing disloyal acts and being dangerous to national security.
Answer:
Silent Trade
Explanation:
Silent trade is a form of the old style of trading which is even more common to the West Africans.
It involves a situation whereby traders who do not understand each other's language, tried to perform trade.
To trade successfully, for example, PARTY A would leave trade goods in a secret but a known place to the buying party, and make a loud signal that good is left somewhere. PARTY B would then get to the place, examine the goods, and deposit their object of exchange that they wanted to exchange, and withdraw.
