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.

How did United States and Allies fight in Germany
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Seven decades after the end of World War II and a quarter-century after the end of the Cold War, roughly seven-in-ten Americans see Germany as a reliable ally, and about six-in-ten Germans trust the United States, according to a Pew Research Center survey. A majority of Germans believe it is more important for Germany to have strong ties with the United States than with Russia. Germans also give U.S. President Barack Obama high marks for his management of the U.S.-German relationship. And Germans and Americans are equally wary of international entanglements and want their countries to focus on domestic problems.

But Germans and Americans do not see eye-to-eye on salient points in the history of the postwar alliance, nor about some of the key issues in its future. For Americans, the most important event in U.S.-German relations over the past 75 years remains World War II and the Holocaust. Germans are less unanimous in their views of historical importance, but to the extent that one event stands out it is the 1989 fall of the Berlin Wall. In the eyes of most Americans, the “special relationship” with Britain is still stronger than that with Germany. Americans want Germany to play a more active military role in the world, but Germans emphatically disagree. Americans think that neither the European Union nor the U.S. is being tough enough in dealing with Russia on the issue of Ukraine. A plurality of Germans believes the handling of Russia is about right. And, while half of Americans voice the view that a free trade agreement between the EU and the U.S. would be a good thing, only about four-in-ten Germans agree.

These are among the main findings of Pew Research Center surveys conducted in the U.S. among 1,003 people from February 26 to March 1, 2015, and in Germany among 963 people February 24-25, 2015. All interviews were done by telephone. The survey was conducted in association with the Bertelsmann Foundation.

What inspired women to begin enlisting?
Dima020 [189]

Women have been a part of the war effort since the Revolutionary War, but in the early days of our nation they had to cloak themselves in disguise to serve alongside men. When they were accepted into the military, women were given auxiliary roles. As the weapons and methods of warfare changed in the late 20th century, however, the Pentagon began to realize that gender matters less on the battlefield.
