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.
政府本身就给失业人员补贴,现在对underemployed的人也给予补贴,但不会高于失业补贴本身——人们不会接受工资低于失业补贴本身的工作,这个逻辑显而易见,且本身没有什么逻辑漏洞,因此只能靠“接受这些underemployed的工作有其他好处”的他因来进行削弱。
a,政府对补贴不征税,反而参加工作需要交税,肯定更多的人宁愿不工作也不会接受工资低的工作,增强;
b,无关比较
c,他因削弱,就职的人找工作比未就职要好,先上着班对你之后跳槽有好处,所以就先上着吧
d,失业人员是否属于贫困阶层根本不重要,无关
e,sometime表个例不具备说服力,削弱程度不够
