This means that the government or the people as a whole have control over the production and distribution of goods and services, rather than it being in the hands of private individuals or corporations.

    • Employers must offer many benefits to keep good workers.

    • . employee satisfaction is a high priority of this company.

    Correct Answer
    A. The supply of workers is plentiful.
    Explanation
    Based on the passage, one would conclude that the supply of workers is plentiful. This can be inferred from the strict rules and consequences mentioned in the passage, such as workers losing wages for being just 2 minutes late. The prohibition of conversation with fellow workers also suggests that the management may not be concerned about fostering a positive work environment or prioritizing employee satisfaction. Therefore, it can be concluded that the company has enough workers and may not need to offer many benefits or prioritize employee satisfaction.

This event caused many Southern states to feel threatened by Lincoln's anti-slavery stance, leading them to secede from the United States and form their own Confederate government.

This suggests that the factory implemented a more structured and standardized approach to production, which often involves assembly line work where workers are assigned specific tasks that they repeat continuously.
