Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Sherman Anti-Trust Act did not clearly define what constituted a "restraint of trade," leading to confusion and inconsistent enforcement. The act did not specifically pose a threat to small businessmen, and it did not define any farm of a certain size as a monopoly. The act was enforceable by the federal government, not by state business bureaus.
