What was the relationship between government and business in the late 1800?
In the latter half of the 1800s, businesses were doing pretty much what they wanted, including building monopolies, paying low wages, and allowing terrible working conditions. Government did little to stop it for a long time. Around 1890, the Progressives in government decided to put a stop to a lot of the abuse. The government started to regulate several business practices including making monopolies illegal. Businesses were not happy and have been fighting government regulations in one form or another ever since.
