The inspiration and motivation for this act started in 1890, when the Sherman Act was passed.

United States, which dismantled a J. P. Morgan company, antitrust enforcement became institutionalized.〔 Soon after, Wilson created the Bureau of Corporations, an agency that reported on the economy and businesses in the industry.〔 This agency was the predecessor to the Federal Trade Commission. In 1913, President Wilson expanded on this agency by passing the Federal Trade Commissions Act along with the Clayton Antitrust Act.〔 The Federal Trade Commission Act was designed for business reform. Congress passed this Act with the hopes of protecting consumers against methods of deception in advertisement, forcing the business to be upfront and truthful about items being sold.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=What Is the Federal Trade Commission Act? )〕
