why do you think the Sherman Antitrust Act and other attempts at regulating monopolies and trusts were not effective?

History
1 answer:
Vesna [10]4 years ago
6 0
For more than a decade after its passage, the Sherman Act was invoked only rarely against industrial monopolies, and then not successfully, chiefly because of narrow judicial interpretations of what constitutes trade or commerce among states. When it was first passed, the Sherman Antitrust Act was largely ineffective at stopping industrial monopolies. Courts at the time tended to hold a very narrow view of what constituted “trade or commerce among states,” and most companies were not held liable under the act. For more than a decade after its passage, the Sherman Antitrust Act was invoked only rarely against industrial monopolies, and then not successfully. Ironically, its only effective use for a number of years was against labor unions, which were held by the courts to be illegal combinations.

What was the primary purpose of the ten commandments?​
Alexxandr [17]

The primary purpose of the Ten Commandments was to describe God's rules of behavior.The Ten Commandments are a set of ethical and worship principles that play an important role in Judaism and Christianity. They include instructions such as worshiping God alone and keeping the Sabbath, as well as prohibitions against idolatry, murder, theft, dishonesty and adultery. Different religious groups follow different traditions in how to interpret and list them.According to the story told in the Book of Exodus, God wrote these commands on two tablets of stone, which he gave to Moses on Mount Sinai; According to the story, when he came down from the mountain, he saw the people were worshiping a golden calf and he broke them. Later, he asked God to forgive the people and to seal with him a covenant; Then, the Lord commanded Moses to take two stone slabs and in them were written the Ten Commandments of the covenant, rebuking him that "disobedience must not be tolerated."
