Answer:

A. Women

Step-by-step explanation:

Women were strongly behind the temperance movement, for alcohol was seen as the destroyer of families and marriages. Men would often spend their money on alcohol, leaving women with no money to provide for their children.

Answer:

A. Women

Step-by-step explanation:

The government wouldn't care, as they would most likely all be men and doing the same things.

Business owners would want this to continue, as they are making money from these men.

Women would not like that the men are spending the money at bars and would start the Temperence Movement in the mid-1800s against alcohol consumption.
