The answer is B. Its emphasis on political rights over economic rights.
In a liberal democracy, citizens usually enjoy freedoms like voting, speech, and assembly (political rights). But economic rights—like guaranteed housing, healthcare, or income equality—often take a backseat. That’s considered a flaw because some people can have political power on paper but still struggle materially, which limits the effectiveness of true equality.
A and C aren’t typical flaws in theory: liberal democracies protect freedom of expression, and while they can have political disagreements, “instability” isn’t inherent—it depends on other factors.
