Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Neoliberal economists believe in minimal government intervention in the economy and that free markets will naturally correct themselves. They advocate for laissez-faire policies, which align with the economist's statement against government regulation. Marxism, Keynesianism, and structuralism all promote government intervention in some form, so they would not align with the economist's views.
