Editorial: In Ledland, unemployed adults receive government assistance. To reduce unemployment, the government proposes to supplement the income of those who accept jobs that pay less than government assistance, thus enabling employers to hire workers cheaply. However, the supplement will not raise any worker's income above what government assistance would provide if he or she were not gainfully employed. Therefore, unemployed people will have no financial incentive to accept jobs that would entitle them to the supplement.
Which of the following, if true about Ledland, most seriously weakens the argument of the editorial?
The government collects no taxes on assistance it provides to unemployed individuals and their families.
Neighboring countries with laws that mandate the minimum wage an employer must pay an employee have higher unemployment rates than Ledland currently has.
People who are employed and look for a new job tend to get higher-paying jobs than job seekers who are unemployed.
The yearly amount unemployed people receive from government assistance is less than the yearly income that the government defines as the poverty level.
People sometimes accept jobs that pay relatively little simply because they enjoy the work.
现在,不工作得到的补贴+工作得到的(最低)工资一样
所以,失业的人没有financial incentive去找那些使得他们获得supplement从而获得和补贴一样大小工资的工作
C.那些现在有工作的人去找一个新工作的时候更容易获得high-paying,与那些失业的人相比
(找到一个工作是有必要的,对于之后的职业发展还是有帮助的---变相的financial incentive)
注意文章强调了financial incentive,就要努力往这方面靠
