A) Sherman Antitrust Act was enacted to eliminate monopolies, trusts, or any agreement that restricted trade.

The Sherman Antitrust Act prevented monopolies so larger companies couldn't control everything, and also because the people wanted more competition so there would be lower prices and better quality on the goods that were sold.
