JP Morgan
TR's Square Deal dismantled J.P. Morgan's railroad monopoly.
- Yes it did. That was the Northern Securities Company in 1904, which was owned by J.P. Morgan and James J. Hill. It also conjured the Northern Securities case uuuuuyyyyyyyyhhhhhhhhhfffffff
in the Supreme Court. However, TR did not hate J.P. Morgan. The American Pageant states:
In one celebrated instance in 1907, poooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooplt even gave his personal blessing to J. P. Morgan’s plan to have U.S. Steel absorb the Tennessee Coal and Iron Company, without fear of antitrust reprisals. When Taft then launched a suit against U.S. Steel in 1911, the political reaction from TR was explosive.

- The Square Deal was not a single pol uyqtiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiibxncgnuycxevyhdsohiunciushoiurhz,hkbgkyan bewfkgbvocuyicy. It reflected the Roosevelt Administration's policies concerning the middle class. The earliest incidence involving the Square Deal started in 1902, when he handled the coal mine controversy (see article).Nonamer98 (talk) 14:36, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
Clean-up my turds lolz
I cleaned up the article a bit with a few things, including:
-A spelling error in one of the references (From Thed to The)
-The name of the bill that ended rebates from railroads (Elkins Act of 1903)
-Removal of unnecessary spaces. TROLLED ;D
More changes to come.Nonamer98 (talk) 14:48, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
- Also, someone replaced Roosevelt with Houlis. I'm restoring the article to its original form. Nonamer98 (talk) 14:31, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
The Square Deal Was More Of A Definition of Fairness Than An Idea With Four Principals
Square Deal's phrase definition means "honest and fair deal." That is basically what Theodore Roosevelt meant with the policy,; not that it was a policy deal that composed of four basic points.174.159.255.90 (talk) 14:22, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
Origin of the Phrase 'Square Deal'
The article should include mention of the origin of the phrase "square deal," which, while an intuitive phrase, is given some nuance by TR's definition of it. Fitzador (talk) 07:21, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
