    B. They were wealthier than other peasants and therefore had the most to lose.

    Explanation:

    Explanation:

    By 1917 in Russia emerged a wealthy and prosperous peasant class who was characterized by owning large farms and agricultural areas. They also had access to cattle and all types of agricultural business. They were so powerful that Kulaks even lent money and played an important social role in Russian society.

    In 1927 the Soviet powers to be and political class started a change in the peasant policy in which it was necessary to have a more demanding tax policy on Kulaks and Kulaks also had to be restricted regarding their right to lease lands. Obviously it was a policy Kulak class was against for because such a policy represented the beginning of the "Collectivization" of agriculture so they pressed very hard to discourage this government new policy. In the end of 1929 the Soviet government successfully launched a campaign of "dekulakization" and approximately 75% of farms in the Soviet Union entered in the collectivization policy.
