Answer: C. Adam smiths the wealth of nations.

The statements in the box are all arguments of Adam Smith in his book of Wealth of Nations. He emphasized that the government must be limited in its core functions and keep the market open and free, avoiding business interventions and promote open market competition.

Moreover, he believe that in order for businesses to grow, they must produce products that are in demand.
