LAD #27: The Clayton Anti-Trust Act

The Clayton Anti-Trust Act was passed on October 15th 1914. It stated that products could not be sold for different prices to different people and the quality/grade of a product could not be changed depending on the buyer. The Clayton Anti-Trust Act was created in order to strengthen the previous Sherman Anti-Trust Act passed in 1890.  It was worded better in order to take unions out of the equation; so that they could not be called out for defending their rights as workers.
