Answer to Question 1

There are several policies a government can undertake. First the government must insure that the preconditions for growth are present. The government must insure that economic freedom exists, that property rights are enforced, and that markets are free. After these crucial preconditions are in place, the government can create incentive mechanisms to save, invest, and innovate; can encourage saving; can encourage research and development; can encourage international trade; and can improve the quality of education.

Answer to Question 2

B
