a. regulate business more than in the past
b. construct national infrastructure plans
c. force redistribution of income
d. implement collective laws
e. restrict businesses less than in the past

Answer 1

The correct answer is A. The special protection the courts once granted property rights has been reduced so the government can regulate business more than in the past.

Step-by-step explanation:

The constitutional and legal protection that our legal system granted to private property has undergone modifications that, over the years, have measured this right against the needs of the government and society in general. ´

Thus, the property has been limited through the imposition of different taxes and charges on property, with the aim of financing the government so that it can carry out works that benefit society in general (thus collaborating with income redistribution), and so that it can exercise more efficient control over the different businesses.

Answer 2

The answer is: e. restrict businesses less than in the past

In the past, the government can intervene with any conflicts regarding property rights.

But, due to the development of internet, the amount of copyright infringement is massively increased and it is impossible for the government to intervene to all cases. Because of this, the special protection granted for property rights only extended to those that heavily affect public interest.
