Answer:

B. Deciding which programs receive more funding than others

Step-by-step explanation:

The allocation of government spending will directly affect the market. Depending on the type of policy it propose, it might hurt a certain industry while benefiting others at the same time. (For example, if the government fund the programs to reduce pollution, entities such as figurate and oil company will directly feel a decrease in their profit)

Government can't influence the outcome of competition since it's depended on the quality of the product. They also can't ensure that all American has high paying jobs since it will be depended on the person's skill set.
