Until philosophers are kings, or the kings and princes of this world have the spirit and power of philosophy, and political grea

Answer:

B.

only people who were wise should run the government.

Explanation:

This is true because, it was believed that philosophers are wise people. For Plato to be saying that <em>"until Kings who are rulers are have the spirit and power of philosophy"</em>, He simply means that, until they become wise, cities will be free from evils. <em>Likewise, when the philosophers become kings.</em>
