When the founders were creating a new American government, the abuses
of power from a single ruler were fresh in their minds. They didn't want
another king! So the United States government was designed to prevent any
single person or group from becoming too powerful. We call this idea
"separation of powers."
The Constitution separates the government's power into three branches.
Each branch has separate responsibilities, but they all must interact with
each other in different ways. This separation of powers includes a system of
checks and balances, which are ways that each branch can limit the others.
Based on the passage, the founders of the United States would most likely agree with
which of the following statements?
A
Kings do not have enough power.
B
Kings can take advantage of their power.
с
A government should have few checks and balances.
D
The branches of government do not need to interact.
