Thanks for your reply PandeyRav. I too chose C but the OA is B.

The federal bankruptcy laws illustrate the folly of do-good protectionism at its most extreme. At the debtor's own request, the judge will list all of his debts, take what money the debtor has, which will be very little, and divide that small amount among his creditors. Then the judge declares that those debts are thereby satisfied, and the debtor is free from those creditors. Why, a person could take his credit card and buy a car, a stereo, and a new wardrobe and then declare himself bankrupt! In effect, he will have counted his creditors into giving him all those things for nothing. Which of the following adages best describe the author's attitude about a bankrupt debtor? A- "A penny saved is a penny earned" B- "You've made your bed, now lie in it" C - "Absolute power corrupts absolutely" D- "He that governs least governs best" E- "Millions for defense, but not one cent for tribute" Kindly post ur reasoning.

Very clear. Thanks a lot Manish!

The frequency with which price promotions occur then has an impact on the sales (the topline of the company but not the bottomline). Hence B is better than D. This is a very good passage.
