The correct answer is C eliminate unfair business practices.

The Interstate Commerce Act was created in 1887 to tackle railroad monopolies. It set guidelines on how the railroad companies could do business. The act became a law which demanded "just and reasonable" rates; prohibited special rates for individual shippers; prohibited favoritism in rates for shippers, or products; prohibited pooling of traffic and established an Interstate Commerce Commission.

FrozenT [24]

Explanation:

The Enlightenment was an intellectual movement in the eighteenth century that emphasized reason and science.

The British colonist Benjamin Franklin gained fame on both sides of the Atlantic as a printer, publisher, and scientist. He embodied Enlightenment ideals in the British Atlantic with his scientific experiments and philanthropic endeavors.

Enlightenment principles guided the founding of the colony of Georgia, but those principles failed to stand up to the realities of colonial life.

The Enlightenment

The Enlightenment, also known as the Age of Reason, was an intellectual and cultural movement in the eighteenth century that emphasized reason over superstition and science over blind faith. Using the power of the press, Enlightenment thinkers like John Locke, Isaac Newton, and Voltaire questioned accepted knowledge and spread new ideas about openness, investigation, and religious tolerance throughout Europe and the Americas. Many consider the Enlightenment a major turning point in Western civilization, an age of light replacing an age of darkness.

What was the argument presented for advocates of bottle-feeding?
aleksley [76]
<span>The main argument presented was that parents were able to monitor and keep track of the milk being consumed by their baby.

iragen [17]

When a world war has just finished, the country's resources are depleted. So, it is difficult to provide jobs and houses for returning soldiers because these would require manpower and monetary resources. The period after the war is dedicated to picking up the scrap and trying to make do with what's available through cooperation. So, for me, the most appropriate course of action is helping labor unions work together with businesses.
