The correct answer is elimination. The second part of the sentence says that dominant interests are able to take care of themselves if left alone. This implies that government interference is not necessary for them. Note the negative connotations in the word "interference" and the positive connotations in "benefit". Thus, the elimination of the negative interference would lead to a benefit. An intensification or authorization of interference would have the opposite effect. Options C & D do not fit well with the noun "interference".

The second half of the statement states that the dominant interests prefer to be left alone, well if that's the case - they definitely don't want govt interference - that is eliminate them.
