How did the History of the Standard Oil Company help pass the Sherman Antitrust Act?
And what did the Act do for the economy?
Rockefeller had used his monopolistic authority to coerce transport capitalists to charge his competitors higher rates.
I don’t know what effect the act had.

standard oil had what was called a vertical monopoly…he owned the oil wells, the drilling companies, the transportation to get the oil to the refineries, the refineries, the means of distribution of the gasoline, and the gas stations…no one could compete…and he did coerce higher rates for competitors…
the act caused a brake up of the monopoly but that only slowed old Rocky down…
there was competition, prices fell and rocky made a little less money…
