Correct answer:  C) a plan to use laser technology to defend America against missiles

Background/context:

In 1983, Reagan proposed the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), which was a plan for a space-based missile defense system against any threat of Soviet missiles.  Sometimes people referred to Reagan's plan as "Star Wars," because of the original idea to use lasers.  The plan ultimately developed into defensive missiles that could target and shoot down incoming offensive missiles.  More than 200 billion dollars were devoted to the Strategic Defense Initiative over the next four decades after the program was started.

erica [24]
While it is important to note that the French Revolution highlighted the friction between the French bourgeoisie royalty and the aristocracy, it is not to be credited as the major cause of the revolution. The revolution was caused by the financial strain of the French government at the time. The decreasing credibility of the monarchy in terms of their management of finances and wealth induced the increasing doubt the public had for them.
