Question

conservatives who opposed the new deal did so for three main reasons. what were they?
businesses should regulate themselves without government oversight.
states should regulate their own affairs.
the new deal didnt do enough to help people.
the government should balance the budget but keep taxes low.

Explanation:

To determine the reasons conservatives opposed the New Deal, we analyze each option:

1. "Businesses should regulate themselves without government oversight": Conservatives often favor limited government intervention in business, so this aligns with their opposition (they disliked New Deal's business regulations).
2. "States should regulate their own affairs": The New Deal involved federal intervention; conservatives who supported states' rights would oppose this federal overreach.
3. "The New Deal didn't do enough to help people": This is a liberal or left - leaning criticism, not a conservative one (conservatives thought the New Deal did too much government intervention).
4. "The government should balance the budget but keep taxes low": The New Deal involved deficit spending; conservatives, who favor fiscal responsibility and low taxes, would oppose the New Deal's spending/tax policies.

So the three correct reasons are the first, second, and fourth options (the ones with "Businesses should regulate themselves without government oversight", "States should regulate their own affairs", and "The government should balance the budget but keep taxes low").

Answer:

• The option with "Businesses should regulate themselves without government oversight"
• The option with "States should regulate their own affairs"
• The option with "The government should balance the budget but keep taxes low"
