Trust-busting
The "Progressive Era" of the late 19th century and early 20th century saw the US and Western Europe politically active in wider social and economic issues, including private enterprise, labor unions, and women's suffrage. But individual opinions varied on how changes should be implemented.
Most progressives favored government intervention against monopolistic trusts (trust-busting), but even Theodore Roosevelt believed in "good trusts" that efficiently advanced industries. The height of social intervention acts were the 17th, 18th and 19th amendments in 1913, 1919 and 1920 (Direct Election of Senators, Prohibition, and Women's Right to Vote).
