Answer:

The correct answer is A command Economic System

Step-by-step explanation:

Unlike a free-market capitalist system where market forces determine demand and supply of a product, a command economy is one in which the government manages resources and decides on what industry should be given priority.

This economic system was mostly found in the Soviet Union or Communist China during Mao's time and it usually did more harm than good.
