hmm this sounds like economics xD Not my strongest subject... But i'll give it a shot :)

So firstly, what do you think the answer is?
Note that when it says "Governments must provide some goods and services", some examples of the goods and services are... public transport, police, highways and schools.

anonymous · Answer

Maybe C because private companies can't provide these certain goods and services

anonymous · Answer

Or A because no one can limit who goes to a school or who drives on the highway

butterflydreamer · Answer

i like the way you're thinking :)!
It's definitely not D and B.
I am leaning towards C because private companies cannot make schools and hospitals :)
