LAD #24-Clayton Anti-Trust Act
This act was a major stride toward getting rid of trusts in America. The act provided consequences and procedures for how to deal with those who violated the act. Trusts were illegal in America now because of all the corruption and unequality they had caused. These trusts controlled prices, resources and violated markets. The goverment sought change and found it in the Clayton Anti-Trust Act. Under Wilson, this act involved the court systems to help find fit punishments for these illegal trusts. This act was designed to end big business monopolies that were not beneficial to the government or general public, therefore they were eliminated.
