When governments their citizens they are able to provide public services such as a. control . . banks b. protect . . health care c. punish . . prisons d. tax . . education

D.)  Tax . . . . Education

Explanation:

First of all, answer A doesn't make sense because how would control lead to being able to pay for things like banks? It can't be A.

It could have been B, because protecting leads to health care. Then again, why would someone need health care if they are being protected already?

Definitely not C. Punishing leads to getting more prisons? You would  still need to pay for prisons too, and punishing doesn't pay you money.

The only other answer would be D. Tax leads to things like education. That sounds reasonable enough.

If this isn't enough proof that it is D, then look below:
