The correct answers are greater regulation of business, political power in the hands of the people, tax reductions and free silver movement.
- The Populist's Party considered that the <em>government should take the role of owning and managing all railroads</em> (via a federal appropriation of the railroad's system) to have a more regulatory role over the power of bankers and railroad magnates over this transportation system.
- Another major point was the <em>popular election of U.S. Senators</em>. During that time, senators were chosen by the state legislatures, and not by the people's vote, a factor that allowed business lobbies to excerpt influence over the selection of these officials. They also sponsored a reform of the legislative system to include the referendum and recall as a chance of having a more direct voice on how the country was being run.
- "The Omaha Platform: Policies for the common man" also calls for the <em>implementation of a Graduated Income Tax</em>. The party considered that the income resulted from this contribution was going to allow the <em>reduction of the burden that was placed upon domestic industries</em>.
- At last, the group also known as the "Silverites" called for the <em>free and unlimited coinage of silver </em>to achieve three things: Ending the nation's economic crisis, allowing the wealth to reach a more significant portion of the population, and decreasing the value of money, causing deflation.
