WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST IF YOU CAN EXPLAIN AND PROVIDE THE CORRECT ANSWER! In the United States, people pay taxes so government can provide services to the people. What is one benefit of the government providing services instead of allowing the free market and private businesses to do so? Government can provide services that would not be practical for private businesses to provide, such as a national military. Government is generally more efficient at providing goods and services than private businesses. Businesses should not provide services because a free market would be more efficient. Businesses make better decisions than government about what services are in the best interest of society as a whole.

Government can provide services that would not be practical for private businesses to provide, such as a national military.

explanation: we can only guess at how our actions may be perceived in the future. doing something really big like killing lots of people, saving lots of people, affecting the lives of lots of people is a sure fire way of being remembered in historical records. we can also make a difference in the history records by being a small influence on something bigger, whether that is as a civil servant, scientist or artist.

of course you could argue that we all affect history just as tiny cogs in a   bigger machine.

if you mean how do people influence our opinions of things which have already happened, then simply by writing a book which looks at things form a different perspective and trying to convince people that this perspective is more accurate or truthful. people do it all the time i.e. richard the third was a terrible or was he? plenty would disagree, it's just that their views aren't the most widely known.n:
