25、economic system is organized around a basicallyprivate-enterprise, market- oriented economy in which consumers largelydetermine what shall be produced by spending their money in the marketplacefor those goods and services that they want most. Private businessmen ,striving to make profits , produce t

26、hese goods and services in competition withother businessmen ;and the profit motive , operating under competitive pressures , largelydetermines how these goods and services are produced.
