Question 34893 • (Galli)WCA 2221 Civics/Economics 1st nine weeks 26-27

What is one characteristic of a command economy?

Answer
A
Citizens are responsible for providing their own health care.
B
Citizens can easily start their own businesses.
C
The government controls the prices of most goods.
D
The government prohibits the use of money.

Explanation

In a command economy, the government makes many major economic decisions, including setting or controlling prices for many goods and services. Citizens generally have less freedom to start businesses than in a market economy, so choice B is not characteristic. A command economy does not necessarily prohibit money or require citizens to provide their own health care.
