while Taft was in office he, unlike teddy roosevelt, used the justice department to prosecute and bust up trusts. roosevelt had used his force of personality and meetings that he organized to bust up specific trusts that he wanted gone. Taft delegated the responsibility to those in the justice department. therefore there were atleast four times as many anti-trust lawsuits under Taft than roosevelt. Also he allowed the first bill on a nationwide income tax to pass through congress. He also let bills that allow for state refferendums and the recall of elected officials pass through congress.
