Answer:
The answer to your question is "The Civil Service Act"
Explanation:
This quote from Gilded Age Politics:Crash Course US History #26:
"Despite that and the widespread corruption, some national reform legislation actually did get passed in the Gilded Age. The Civil Service Act of 1883, prompted by Garfield's assassination by a disgruntled office-seeker, created a merit system for 10% of federal employees, who were chosen by competitive examination, rather than political favoritism."
The answer is "protectionism".
Protectionism refers to the act or point at which a nation tries to shield its own particular enterprises from global competition. Truly protectionism has been related with nations endeavoring to create from rich to poor. The most widely recognized contention for protectionism is that before a nation can contend globally it needs time to build up it's own businesses. This is in some cases called the infant industry argument.

B. A recession period. This problem can be solved in two ways. The first would be to group the answers by their relationship with the economy, A, C, and D are all periods of economic growth. B. is the only one that identifies with stagnation or a negative period of growth. The second option is to identify the reason behind tax cuts during a recession. Tax cuts reduce expenditures for all economic parties involved, except for the government, which would increase the national debt, but the attempt is to stimulate the economy like President Ronald Reagan did with tax cuts during the 1980s, later accepting some increases in taxes after the economy started to expand.
