Antitrust laws in the United States are responsible for some of the most onerous acts of government. Standard Oil, US Steel, and the American Tobacco Company have all felt the heavy hand of government swatting them with new regulations and orders to break up since the creation of these laws. The Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890 mollified the bureaucrats and legislators who wanted to go after business by stating that businesses were not able to engage in “anti-competitive” practices.
