If the government controlled business in a country, what aspect of capitalism would be violated?
a. competition
b. profit
c. individual initiative
d. private ownership
Controlling business in a country does not directly relate to profit. It would be conflicting with the principle of competition, but not necessarily: if there are many such businesses there would still be competition.
The correct asnwer is: private ownership: if they're owned by the government, they are not privately owned.
