a. greater market for goods and services
Answer:
B. extortion.
Explanation:
In the context of law, extortion is defined as a criminal offence where an offender/criminal obtains something, particularly money or property, through force or violent threats.
If we look into the above scenario, the two criminals have committed a series of offences, however, they did not force nor threat the client to invest his money into their scheme. Therefore, they cannot be charged with extortion by the court.
Instead they would be charged with criminal conspiracy for scheming a fraud, money laundering for transfering the money into their family business to conceal income and deceit for deceiving the man with lies.

Read Individualism and Commitment in American Life. By Robert N. Bellah, Richard Madsen, William M. Sullivan, Ann Swidler, and Steven M. Tipton
True or False?
The researchers in Habits of the Heart thought that the individualism of modern life was a benefit to communities of memory.
Answer: False
Explanation:
The scholars understood that individualism created a problem that could be solved through the cultivation of communities of memory. They found that individualism was impoverishing the American language in a way that became more and more challenging for people to talk about commitment. Communities of memory where traces of second languages could be preserved were believed to be capable of transforming the first language of individualism based on the traditions of biblical religion and civic republicanism.
