4 0

Oedipus feels so because of his own personal tragedy and how it does tie in with the plague.

Explanation:

Oedipus announces, earlier in the play, that whoever is responsible for the plague must be cast out.

Then through the play he realizes that it is his unknowing crime that has caused the plague on the city as his personal life falls in shambles.

It is because of this that he says that there is no person who is suffering more cause of the plague than he himself as he has found out the truth of his origin and his wife / mother has killed herself.

Regulatory legislation at the start of the twentieth century primarily dealt with_______.
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Business monopolies.

Explanation:

In the late 19th century and early 20th, most companies were looking to form monopolies. By decreasing or nullifying the competition, the business's success was assured.

As an example, the Standard Oil Company, founded by John D. Rockefeller was one of the most powerful monopolies of its time. He was able to dictate fixed products, pay whatever wages he wanted to pay to workers, and controlled the market since his competitors weren't remotely close to his manufacturing levels.

However, it didn't lack opposition. in 1890 United States Senator John Sherman, attained the passage of the Sherman Antitrust Act in 1890, which allowed the Federal Government to break up any business who was in any way prohibiting competition. This act was widely used throughout the whole century, in the fight against monopolies.

Read the passage below and answer the question that follows: Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl Excerpt from Chapter II. The
BARSIC [14]

Answer: Dr. Flint told the faithful old servant that, under existing circumstances, it was necessary she should be sold.

This line shows the hardships of slaves better than the alternatives. In it, it describes the cruel condition that slaves were subjected to: being publicly sold. It also shows that they were unable to make plans for their future. Moreover, the passage is particularly sad because of the broken promise the mistress had made to the slave, and the woman's inability to regain her freedom.
