What is the purpose of labor laws? A. To protect consumers
ОО
B. To reduce government power
C. To protect workers
ОО
D. To keep prices low

C

Explanation:

A: not the answer. There are other laws that protect the consumer -- things like warrantees.

B: This is the answer that you can eliminate almost immediately. Labor laws protect those who work and are employed. There is a long history of how those who worked in coal mines were mercilessly taken advantage of. Nothing in the labor laws reduces government size.

D: Not the answer. In a true capitalist system, prices are controlled by the market -- the balance between those wanting to buy and those wanting to sell. The labor laws have nothing to do with this process.

C: This is your answer. The labor laws protect those who receive a salary for what they do.

Under Stalin, the property and land became collectivized which meant that land owners couldn't dictate what the production would be like or what the prices would be like. This made life better for poorer people and was a step towards abolishing classes, but the rich people often suffered because they would be banished or imprisoned or things like that and they would have their properties taken away from them.
