The answer is A : extending the role of government into industries that have been traditionally private, like healthcare

Alexzander Melendez · Answer 2

The first alternative is correct (A).

Democratic ideology suggests that government should act more in areas sensitive to society, such as the health sector. Democratic presidents thus have a tradition of getting more involved in social issues that aim to include people, especially the poorest. One example in the case of health was the Obamacare program, which extended access to insurance to millions of Americans, implemented by President Barak Obama.
