122. When people evade income taxes by not declaring taxable income, a vicious cycle result. Tax evasion forces lawmakers to raise income tax rates, which causes the tax burden on nonevading taxpayers to become heavier. This, in turn, encourages even more taxpayers to evade income taxes by biding taxable income.
The vicious cycle described above could not result unless which of the following were true?
C. when lawmakeers establish income tax rates in order to generate a certain level of revenue, they do not allow adequately for revenue that will be lost through evasion.
E. taxpayers do not differ from each other with respect to the rate of taxation that will cause them to evade taxes.
我觉得C.E 都是正确的, 虽KEY IS C. 因为如果E 不对的话, 那么即使是HEAVIER RATES, 也不一定导致更多的人逃税, 对吗?
If ,contrary to choice C, lawmakers don't set tax rates for a certain level of revenue, the evasion of income taxes will be allowed,therefore weakening the conclusion, Thus, choice C is an assumption of the argument.
