minus-squareDead_or_Alive@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year ago_Looks at Anti Trust legislation that was passed over a hundred years ago and scratches head. Sherman Act 1880 Clayton Act 1914 Federal Trade Commission Act 1914_ We don’t need new laws, we need people appointed to the FTC who will enforce the law more aggressively.
minus-squarequeermunist she/her@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down6·1 year agoYeah, and what happened to that legislation?
