Key Vocabulary

Before answering this question, you first need to understand vocab words for my explanation and to understand the other answer choices.

  • Laissez-faire - Laissez-faire is an economic system were the government has no control over the economy. This means that there are no state-owned businesses and no state-implemented tarrifs.
  • Capitalists - Capitalists are wealthy business people that invest money into companies. They exist within capitalist economies and compete for business from consumers.
  • Authoritarianism - Authoritarianism is a far-right government type that has one leader that controls the entire government. It is common for these leaders to be cruel and brutal

Communism

Communists are far-left and support the working class. Marx believed that the wealthy factory owners were the problem in the economy. He wanted the workers to overthrow the wealthy and create a fair, equal, and healthy society for all. However, in pratice the societies created from Communism were far from equal. Marx thought that the way to keep the economy fair was to have it owned by the government. These beliefs only match with answer choice A.
