Answer 1

The statements that are examples of Ronald Reagan's domestic philosophy and policies are:

• Reagan's administration eliminated many government regulations on business.
• Congress enacted the largest single tax cut in U.S. history.

The other statements do not accurately reflect Reagan's domestic policies or philosophy. Reagan's approach generally involved reducing government spending on social programs rather than increasing funding for programs directed at the poor and middle class, and his administration did not balance the national budget; instead, it contributed to increased national debt.
