The Federal Trade Commission Act (1914) established the Federal Trade Commission. The Act, signed by Woodrow Wilson in 1914, outlawed unfair methods of competition and outlaws unfair acts or practices that affect commerce.

A.K.A It was a protection against bigger business for the smaller businesses. During the time it was enforced, bigger businesses were known for scaring smaller owners and forcing them to give up their businesses all together -as a way to get rid of competition- FTC was made so that they couldn't do that and if they did there would be consequences.

Hope this helps!

Identify 5 weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation
melamori03 [73]

Answer:1) Under the Articles there was only a unicameral legislature so that there was no separation of powers.

2) The central government under the Articles was too weak since the majority of the power rested with the states.

3) Congress, under the Articles, did not have the power to tax which meant that they could never put their finances in order.

4) In order to change or amend the Articles, unanimous approval of the states was required which essentially meant that changes to the Articles were impossible.

5) For any major laws to pass they had to be approved by 9 or the 13 states which proved difficult to do so that even the normal business of running a government was difficult.
