Capitalism is investing money for profit.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

Unlike other forms of economies, capitalism does not refer to piling money and sharing the profit equally in order to achieve prosperity of all. Capitalism is rather a system in which one who invests the money owns the profit gained from the investment. Capitalist economies are either a mix of public and private sector formations or may also be solely private in nature.

When an individual invests money (capital) in order to fetch profit from the investment, he bears the risk of loss. The profit received is the individual's reward for taking the risk of loss. This is basically a description of the primary level of functioning of a capitalist economy.

What role did the government play in the homestead strike of 1892?
Salsk061 [2.6K]

ANSWER: The government gave support to the Carnegie Steel Company to put a halt to the strike.

The Homestead strike (Homestead, Pennsylvania) was a result of the discontent of the American's strongest union at the time "Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Worker" toward the Carnegie Steel Company for breaching the contract signed in 1889, putting new productions demands and firing the workers of the plant.

On July 6, 1892, ten thousand people supporters of the union did a strike, in which the Company sent three hundred Pinkerton guards. The strike couldn't be repressed, it resulted in many ending up injured and the death of nine strikers and seven guards.

Henry Clay Frick, the manager of the Company, having no other option, appealed to Governor William Stone. Stone supported the company by sending eight thousand militia, which arrived on July 12.
