Answer:

A). Libertarians and conservatives generally favor more government regulation of the market capitalist economy than do liberals or social democrats.

Explanation:

The statement that would be characterized as false is displayed through option A as it asserts an inappropriate and generalized claim about 'Libertarians and conservatives' that they 'additionally favor government regulation of the market and capitalist economy' in comparison to the 'liberal or social democrats'. The former ones(libertarians and conservatives) rather adopt a skeptic attitude towards the governmental authority or power and attempts to expand autonomy and promote the freedom of choice. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
