Answer:  C. Government should not interfere with business practices.

Further detail:

The terminology of "laissez-faire" has been used in economics since the 18th century Enlightenment era.  "Laissez-faire" is French for "let do."  You can think of it as letting the economy do its own thing, without governments trying to interfere with it or control it.  This was an idea promoted by the Physiocrats in 18th century France.  They called themselves "Physiocrats" (those who believed in "rule by nature") because they thought trade and commerce should be allowed to proceed naturally.

The Scottish philosopher Adam Smith picked up on this idea also and promoted a capitalist economy in opposition to what he called a "mercantilist" economy where governments gave monopolies to certain merchants and tried to control business affairs.

artcher [175]

Answer:

During many decades of the 19th century Industrial Revolution, workers conditions were terrible and often inhuman. They were exploited by factory owners. They worked too long, often for 15-20 hours per day; received miserable salaries; worked and lived in unsanitary conditions; they and their families were malnourished and in poor health. This situation affected women, as well as men and children. In the case of women, they had an additional problem which was the fact that they did not have enought time to take cafe of their children, as they had to spend so many hours outside home working in factories.

Why did key basic industries lose business
poizon [28]

Key basic industries, such as railroads, textiles, and steel had barely made a profit. Railroads lost business to new forms of transportation (trucks, buses, and private automobiles, for instance). Coal mining was especially hard-hit, in part due to stiff competition from new forms of energy, including hydroelectric power, fuel oil, and natural gas.
