Monopolies and cartels create unfair market conditions by limiting competition, which can lead to higher prices and reduced choices for consumers. They often manipulate supply and demand to maximize profits, disadvantaging other businesses that cannot compete on the same level. This can stifle innovation and discourage new entrants into the market, ultimately harming the overall economy. As a result, smaller businesses may struggle to survive, leading to reduced diversity in the marketplace.

Cartels engage in several unfair business practices, most notably price-fixing, where they collectively agree to set prices at a certain level, undermining competitive pricing. They may also engage in market allocation, dividing territories or customers among themselves to avoid competition. Additionally, cartels might use bid-rigging in procurement processes to manipulate outcomes in their favor, ultimately harming consumers and other businesses. These practices distort free market dynamics and can lead to legal repercussions for the involved parties.
Anti trust laws keep the consumer safe from unfair business practices such as price setting and monopolies. It keeps the produce honest and providing good business while these laws cannot always break up monopolies they can if proved in court.
Because people criticized that monopolies were unfair and that companies that were using monopolies were too vague. So the government stepped in and made a law that monopolies were no longer allowed. Think of it as the game monopoly. What is your goal? Your goal is to get money and buy all of the companies that are in your way so you would buy their company and there you go, they were out of your way. I hope that helps.
Teddy r. felt monopolies were unfair to business competition
Their basic philosophy was that government should not meddle with business any more than was necessary to prevent monopolies and unfair restraint of trade.
Monopolies have basically no competition, so they can charge whatever prices they want and use unfair business methods, which is bad for customers, so the government tries to stop monopolies from forming.

The open economic system is the one that allows business owners decide what to sell and at what price. This is usually quite unfair for the consumers.

poor and unfair
Trusts put smaller competitors out of business using unfair tactics. Trusts could unfairly raise prices since they had no competition. Trusts had too much influence on government officials.
