Which feature most strongly prevents a policy from being called arbitrary?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Rational basis, procedure, and public accountability

Correct answer: A. An arbitrary decision is made without a reasonable basis, consistent procedure, or an opportunity for review. A sound policy should have reasons, follow authorised procedures, and remain open to questioning and accountability. These safeguards help people understand why the decision was made and allow institutions to check unfairness or misuse of power. A is correct because it combines all three protections. B is wrong because popularity does not prove that a decision is reasonable or lawful. C is wrong because complete secrecy prevents public examination. D is wrong because an unrecorded decision cannot be properly reviewed or challenged. Memory cue: reason plus procedure plus accountability is the opposite of arbitrariness.
