I think it is imprisonment not exceeding three years and a fine not exceeding 10,000,000. That would be option B. I see MANY conflicting answers on the government websites, so that is the answer I have come to.

I hope this helps! :)

Answer:

The correct answer is B. A violator of the Sherman Antitrust Act would face a punishment consisting of imprisonment not exceeding three years and a fine not exceeding $10,000,000.

Explanation:

The Sherman Antitrust Act is a law enacted in 1890 that empowers federal authorities to intervene in anti-trust business to prevent the formation of monopolies. It forms the basis of US antitrust law.

The Sherman Antitrust Act prohibits all business arrangements that restrict interstate trade or US foreign trade. These are considered to include various formal and informal cartels, such as prices agreed between undertakings or production thresholds. It also prohibits attempts to monopolize a business in the United States to an individual operator. The law empowers the federal court to order the dissolution of companies found to be in violation of these regulations. The offenders may be fined or imprisoned. Injured parties are entitled to claim triple compensation for their losses.

List 10 European cities that had revolutions in 1848
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

As mudanças significantes que duraram após esses levantes foram a abolição da servidão no Império Austríaco e no Reino da Hungria, o fim do absolutismo monárquico na Dinamarca e o fim definitivo da monarquia capetíngia na França. As revoluções foram mais importantes na França, Alemanha, Polônia, Itália e no Império Austríaco, mas não chegou a alcançar a Império Russo, Grã-Bretanha, Espanha, Suécia, Portugal ou o Império Otomano. A partir de 1845, a situação política francesa foi profundamente agravada pela eclosão de uma crise econômica devido a escassez de alimentos. Essa crise acabaria se estendendo por todo o continente e estaria na origem das revoluções liberais que abalaram a Europa Centro-Ocidental, no ano de 1848. Os anos de 1845 e 1846 foram de péssimas colheitas, desencadeando uma crise agrícola em todo o continente. A crise agrícola iniciou-se em Flandres e na Irlanda, com as péssimas colheitas de batatas. Na Europa Ocidental, a má colheita de trigo desencadeou em 1846 uma série de revoltas camponesas. Essa crise desencadeou uma alta vertiginosa do custo de vida, atirou à miséria grandes setores da população rural e reduziu drasticamente a sua capacidade de consumo de produtos manufaturados.

Naddik [55]

The general consensus amongst the Civil Rights leaders during World War II was that the fighting in World War II would advance the cause of the Civil Rights movement as people would see the paradox of discriminating against the very people who were helping to protect American values by fighting for their country.
