Answer:  D) to create railroad networks that spanned the entire country

Explanation: The government granted land to railroads to create railroad networks that spanned the entire country. Four out of the five transcontinental railroads that were built in the United States in the late 1800s and early 1900s were built, at least in part, using land granted by the United States government. These railroads were important because they made traveling easier and shipping good more affordable.

Both Thomas Malthus and David Ricardo, who described the "iron law of wages," linked poverty to capitalist greed.

The iron law of wages is a proposed economic law that states that real wages always tend, in the long run, toward the minimum wage required to sustain the worker's life. Ferdinand Lassalle named the theory in the mid-nineteenth century. The doctrine is attributed to Lassalle by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels.

It was coined in response to classical economists' views, such as David Ricardo's rent law and Thomas Malthus' competing population theory. It held that as the working population increased, the market price of labour  would always, or almost always, decrease, and vice versa.
