A. monopolies engaged in unfair business practices B. government programs that gave jobs to the unemployed C. investors speculating in an unregulated stock market D. business owners paying workers unjustly low wages



Answer :

The obvious choice is b because it wouldn't harm the U.S. Only improve it

The correct answer is B. Government programs that gave jobs to the unemployed wasn't a source of weakness in the United States economy during Herbert Hoover's presidency.

During Hoover's presidency, the Great Depression breaked out. As a way to combat unemployment, the government created programs to give jobs to the unemployed people. These programs helped many people to subsist during those years, so these programs were not a source of weakness.
