3. Create a limited government

The purpose of checks and balances is to prevent any one branch of government from becoming too powerful. It ensures that each branch has the ability to check and limit the powers of the other branches, thereby promoting a system of limited government. This system helps maintain the balance of power and prevents any abuse or misuse of power by any single branch.

Answer 3

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

Yes, that is correct. The purpose of checks and balances is indeed to create a limited government. By dividing and distributing powers among the three branches of government (legislative, executive, and judicial), it prevents any one branch from becoming overly dominant and allows for a system of checks and balances to keep the government in check and protect individual rights.
