Despite early resistance, the main reason free public education ultimately triumphed was
 
  a. wealthy and politically powerful Americans feared that if the government failed to provide free public education, poor families immigrants would utilize their free vote to elect candidates and political parties unfavored by these political and economic elites.
  b. wealthy Americans feared the problem of vagrancy as farm families depended less upon the labor of children.
  c. Southern slave owners abandoned their resistance to it.
  d. teaching provided paid employment for unmarried, single women.
  e. poor Americans threatened to launch a violent rebellion unless free education was made available.
