Question

Which group of people suffered because of the

government's laissez-faire approach to
monopolies and trusts?
O Government officials
Business owners
Workers

Answer 1

Workers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Laissez-faire approach is an economic approach accepted by business owners. Laissez-faire approach prohibits any governmental intervention in business affairs.

The term 'laissez-faire' is a French term which means 'leave alone', adopted first in the 18th century by the French Physiocrats. The people who suffer due to this approach is workers. It is because the business owners who accepts this approach are against minimal wages, which is the minimum wages paid by the owner to their workers.

Though, now the government has adopted many policies to rectify this and protect workers.

Therefore, option C is correct.
