This is known as the Anaconda Plan.
This military strategy, developed by Union General Winfield Scott, was meant to starve the Confederacy out of their resources. Essentially, Scott felt that if the Confederacy could not trade for goods with other countries they would not be able to survive. This is due to the Confederacy's reliance on cotton as their main cash crop.
This strategy helps to explain why the US wanted to blockade trade with other countries as well as why the Union wanted to control the Mississippi River, as they knew control of this waterway could negatively impact the Confederacy's ability to transport/obtain resources.

Did they give you any answer choices?
Answer:
If/when chosen by the people you get a more appealing outcome.
Because... The determining factors are YOUR family, friends, and town-folk. It's the people you grew up with. So you all are aware of the same problems in your city/state and you are more than likely both thinking of the same solution. Where as, if chosen by a legislature, you have a bunch of well paid senators who may not see all the things normal people do since they work and live indoors and nowhere near the problems most of the time. They don't care for the middle to lower classes. Most just care about the rich and how to make themselves better and wealthier. It sucks to see, and even more to be living in this kind of world but it's just how it is.
Unless there are specific choices I can only offer you a list of potential answers.
Sherman Act (1890), Federal Trade Commission Act (1914), and the Clayton Act (1914).
The Sherman Act outlawed all forms of monopolization and any attempts to do so. It also set strict penalties for any and all violations of this law.
The Federal Trade Commission Act of 1914 created the Federal Trade Commission which oversaw national business practices.
The Clayton Act addresses more specific points but especially focuses on preventing monopolies through regulation of mergers and acquisitions. It also goes on to prevent discriminatory pricing and dealings.
