The correct answer is D) starting a business. This exemplifies economic freedom because individuals in the United States have the freedom to start their own businesses without government interference. This freedom allows them to pursue their own economic interests, make independent decisions about their enterprises, and potentially achieve financial success.

To arrive at this answer, one can eliminate the options that do not relate to economic freedom. Paying taxes (A) is mandatory for citizens and businesses and not an example of economic freedom. Attending school (B) is related to education rather than economic freedom. Registering to vote (C) is a political right rather than an economic freedom. By process of elimination, the correct answer is D – starting a business.
