Answer: Price of pumpkins will fall compared to last year.

Explanation: Favorable weather leading to a larger crop than usual means that there is more supply of pumpkins this year than before.  Shifting the supply curve down to the right. At the same time, when people switch away from jack-o'-lanterns towards buying more costumes, it leads to a decline in the demand for pumpkins shifting the demand curve to the left.

The net result will be a decline in the demand for fall in the price of pumpkin. However, the effect on the quantity cannot be determined as it depends on the magnitude of shift in the two curves.

mojhsa [17]

Answer: to protect the economic freedom of all of its citizens

Explanation:

The above quote by Adam Smith was him criticizing the common practice in those days of nations trying to control the spending habits of their citizens by passing restrictive laws and limiting the importation and production of certain goods and services.

It would therefore support the U.S. policy of protecting the economic freedom of her citizens such that they may trade whatever it is that they want - so long as it is legal - without restrictions by the government.
