Well this test was way too short and simple. The person who wrote is was also likely a dolt. I kept wanting answers that weren't there.

I tend to agree with Mancur Olson's assessment that some government involvement in business is actually necessary for healthy competition to exist. Without it, you'll mainly just have predatory competition.
