Smuggling--The Embargo Act completely restricted US trade and the New Englanders could trade easily with Great Britain through Canada.
The Embargo Act was put into place during the Napoleonic Wars between Britain and France. Great Britain was taking over US ships and forcing citizens to fight for the British army/navy. Jefferson responded with an embargo to force Britain to stop through economic means. However smuggling made the embargo ineffective as well as a lack of support from NE Federalists. <span />

Answer: B) Cornelius Vanderbilt and the $1 million endowment he gave to Vanderbilt University.
"Robber barons" were powerful businessmen of the 19th-century United States who made their fortunes through dubious practices. Some of these morally questionable strategies are monopolies, the formation of trusts, exploitation of workers, etc. Cornelius Vanderbilt is an example of this type of industrialist. Moreover, a donation to Vanderbilt University is likely to be seen by most people as a "philanthropic" or charitable act.
