Thomas Hobbes was an early modern philosopher who put forth the idea of a "social contract" -- that governments are formed by the will of the people. This was different than previous views which held that governments (kings) got their authority directly from God.
Hobbes published a famous work called Leviathan in 1651. The title "Leviathan" comes from a biblical word for a great and mighty beast. Hobbes believed government is formed by people for the sake of their personal security and stability in society. In Hobbes' view, once the people put a king (or other leader in power), then that leader needs to have supreme power (like a great and mighty beast). Hobbes' view of the natural state of human beings without a government held that people are too divided and too volatile as individuals -- everyone looking out for his own interests. So for security and stability, authority and the power of the law needs to be in the hands of a powerful ruler like a king or queen. And so people willingly enter a social contract in which they live under a government that provides stability and security for society.
Probably the most famous set of lines from Hobbes' Leviathan book describes what he saw as the natural state of human affairs without government -- one in which every individual had freedom, but that meant it was a situation of "war of all against all," or we might say, every man for himself. Hobbes wrote:

In thinking through this answer, it is important to begin with a definition of lobbying.
Lobbying is the actions of an interest group to inform and sway the vote of a legislator or policymaker.
The benefit of lobbying is that the interest groups often have subject matter expertise that the legislators might not have.
Lobbying can be bad when the legislators are not being lobbied equally, that is, the two sides of the argument that they are considering and are being educated on are represented by interests groups with vary different levels of power. This means that while the legislator or policymaker is being educated, the argument backed by more money and power is likely to win out.

Answer:
The correct response is Option D. The banking industry made it easier to borrow money, leading to an increased demand for cars and other high-priced goods.
Explanation:
There are a number of factors that led to the economic boom in the 1920s. There was a sharp increase in consumerism and the purchase of consumer goods, which also had a twofold impact. There was more demand for companies to make more products, and they needed more workers to be able to make the products and to meet demand, so this brought economic growth. It also became easier for people to borrow money or to purchase big-ticket items on credit, and this led to an overextension of credit because people were buying stocks with borrowed money and engaged in speculation buying, for example. This helps to explain the devastating stock market crash in 1929.
