Answer 2

The correct answer is C) Communism.

The economic system that has become associated with authoritarian government and total control of the economy is Communism.

Karl Marx and Friederich Engels coined the term Communism, an economic system where there is not private property. They considered that capitalism bred greed. They instead, proposed Communist, where the proletarian benefited of the economy. For that to happen, the government should control the economy in the name of the people. Unfortunately in reality, Communist countries have become associated with authoritarian government and total control of the economy, such as the case of Cuba when Fidel Castro was the ruler.
