c. The Federal Trade Commission aggressively regulated business.
d. Government polices reflected the pro-business ethos of the decade.

Answer 1

Answer:

Option D, Government polices reflected the pro-business ethos of the decade, is the right answer.

Explanation:

The Democratic Party weakened as a result of the Election of 1920. This era observed the end of the generation of Progressive leaders. During this time, Americans were tired of various reforms, witch hunts and were ready to return to normalcy.

Moreover, this era signaled a return to a pro-business government which meant an almost return to the laissez-faire policy of economics.
