b. 16th Amendment
Reason: the 16th Amendment (ratified 1913) authorized a federal income tax, radically increasing federal revenue and the federal government's capacity to influence the economy. (By contrast, ICC regulation and the Pure Food and Drug Act affected specific industries, and the Wisconsin Idea was a state-level reform.)
