What is the overall role of government regulations in regards to past and current monopolies

Social Studies

ki77a [65]3 years ago

Answer: The government sought to suppress the monopolies of large corporations.

Explanation:

Government efforts varied in attempts to suppress the monopoly of large corporations. Nevertheless, the government was continually working on this policy. Legislation, like Sherman's and Clayton's anti-trust laws, had more impact on large businesses. A Federal Trade Commission was formed to address these issues. The government did not act to destroy large corporations. The government sought to suppress the monopoly to make the market fairer, and for smaller businesses to find their place in the market.

So, for example, we can take Microsoft, which ultimately controls the market, and in such circumstances, the pressure is exerted on the government to suppress such practices. Yet the government's earliest measures were not to contain corporations for competition but to protect consumers. If there is only one corporation on the market, then it can also dictate the prices of the product. America was founded on the principle of free trade and freedom of competition. Therefore, the government assumed the responsibility of preventing the creation of monopolies and suppressing the unfair practices of large corporations.

sashaice [31]
The correct answer is false. They are not successful at resolving conflict if they wait long enough because this could take the problem to last more and that doing it in an emotional state would only make the confrontation worst because they are likely to act with emotions than acting in a more formal way that will prevent any dispute.

Is a worker's human capital and his or her resulting productivity the ONLY determinants of that person's wage or salary?
pav-90 [236]
No it itsn't!

actually there are a lot of external determinants: the current state of the economy, location (the same work might be compensated differently on Manhattan and in Alabama) and also just - luck.
