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

History
1 answer:
Vesna [10]3 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.

Through what other countries did north vietnamese troops move to invade south vietnam? ​​
Margarita [4]
Cambodia and Lao--these neighboring countries were the path for the North Vietnamese to reach the southern parts of Vietnam more quickly. 

Cambodia and Laos would be the located of the HoChi Minh Trail which was the supply line from the North to the South. Many parts of the trail were underground and difficult to get rid of. The US resorted to air strikes of the two countries which was controversial because they were technically neutral areas.
