"Banker J. P. Morgan heroically stepped in to form a syndicate that saved the U.S. with a massive gold loan"

Aren't the 'heroics' subjective? 67.22.211.139 (talk) 00:48, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

I had thought Sherman Act was Sherman Act - this one concerning the silver, not realizing there was http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sherman_Anti_Trust_Act as well which is also called the Sherman Act. Fx303 (talk) 18:52, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

That both were passed in July of 1890 did not help. But when I saw Sherman Act in the business law book, I did a double take as I though it was this silver purchase repealed in 1893 and boy was I in for a shock. I honestly did not know. The July 1890 and the same name make the matter a bit confusing for someone with ADHD. Fx303 (talk) 18:56, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
