I think because if one person held a monopoly on (let's say clothes) it provides less variety for everyone as well as essentially they get all of the revenue and smaller (family owned and such stores) businesses go out of business or bought by the bigger businesses. (Also think of the board game Monopoly, when someone owns a lot of places that cost a lot and people land on it, they pay a lot. Then someone runs out of money and has to sell the property, meaning less of a chance for them to make money and those with money now buy the available land, increasing their chances of getting money) (So essentially the rich get richer and the poor get poorer and there is a large wealth disparity)
Hope this explanation helps. If not, I could try to elaborate.
The problems facing the farmer of the late 19th Century were very broad. They ranged from falling crop prices, to unfair treatment by the railroads, and also the fight to have silver coined as money, in effort to increase the value of a dollar. These problems spurred the creation of the Populist Party, whose goals were to bring redemption to the agricultural community. First off, the most severe problem being battled by the farmers was that of falling crop prices. There were many contributing factors to this, with farmers blaming the government for a multitude of reasons. One overlooked factor when considering this though is that the amount of farms in the United States increased drastically after the civil war. With more farms came more products, which simply apply the idea of supply and demand. The deflation in prices was a direct result of more products, but less demand. As America was becoming a much more industrialized nation, farmers were also following suit, becoming much more commercial in their business.
That's the info I found for u hope it helps!!
I think the answer is D if not the answer should be B
The Age of Enlightenment promoted a confidence in reason or intellectual enquiry to bring greater happiness and progress to humanity; a belief that all aspects of the human and natural worlds are susceptible of rational explanation; and the desire to battle against ignorance, dogma, superstition, injustice and oppression.
