The Interstate Commerce Act (1887), the

Sherman Antitrust Act (1890), and the Clayton

Antitrust Act (1914) are similar in that they were

intended to

(1) reaffirm the federal government’s laissezfaire attitude toward big business

(2) increase the federal government’s power to

regulate business practices

(3) authorize the breakup of labor unions

(4) reject the use of trustbusting
