Sherman Antitrust Act
Originally designed to reinforce the American ideals of "free trade," the Sherman Anti-Trust Act sought to bust up monopolies like those formed by John D. Rockefeller. Unfortunately, its vague language, including the phrase "restraint of trade," left it open to interpretation, usually benefiting corporations instead of the working classes as originally intended.

It was the first federal statute to address the issue of monopolies and has since been used as a basis for antitrust enforcement in the United States.
