AConsumer interests affect capitalism.
BPrices and wages are set by supply and demand.
CPrivately owned resources are used to make a profit.
DGovernment involvement in businesses and markets must be limited.

Verified Answer :

The correct answer is D. Government involvement in businesses and markets must be limited, and when the government regulates the interest rate, it artificially influences supply and demand. In a capitalist economy, the supply and demand is determined by the interactions between buyer and seller.

Government involvement in businesses and markets must be limited.
