which of the following best explains why all goals cannot be met in economics?
a) some goals are incompatible with each other.
b) not all people know what their economic goals are.
c) some goals are not worthy of pursuing.
d) only certain goals can be understood in monetary terms.

The correct answer is "A".

One of the principles of Economic theory is scarcity. Scarcity is the limited availability of certain good. The value of this goodwill grow or decrease according to its demand.

In the economic environment, there are many participants. many of them have interests that enter in conflict with one another. This means that, following the previously mentioned concept of scarcity, at the end of a period there will be winning stakeholders and losing stakeholders. "One's loss is another's gain".

the catholic church withhold people's access to the bible during the middle ages.

people could go to church and listen to the teachings, but it was absolutely forbidden to own and/or read the books of both the old and new testaments. it was also prohibited to translate the books (which where originally in biblical hebrew) to any other language.

this was done so the church could remain in control of what their teachings were and to enhance their importance and power, while also being able to judge people's actions through information that was unavailable for the general public.

your answer would be just capitalism.
