Editorial: In Ledland,unemployed adults receive government assistance. To reduce unemployment, the governmentproposes to supplement the income of those who accept jobs that pay less thangovernment assistance, thus enabling employers to hire workers cheaply. However, the supplement will not raise anyworker’s income above what government assistance would provide if he or shewere not gainfully employed. Therefore,unemployed people will have no financial incentive to accept jobs that wouldentitle them to the supplement.
Whichof the following, if true about Ledland, most seriously weakens the argument ofthe editorial?
A. The government collects no taxeson assistance it provides to unemployed individuals and their families.
B. Neighboring countries with lawsthat mandate the minimum wage an employer must pay an employee have higherunemployment rates than Ledland currently has.
C. People who are employed and lookfor a new job tend to get higher-paying jobs than job seekers who areunemployed.
D. The yearly amount unemployedpeople receive from government assistance is less than the yearly income thatthe government defines as the poverty level.
E. People sometimes accept jobs thatpay relatively little simply because they enjoy the work.

不用繳稅那是誘因，支持結論(unemployed people will have no financial incentive to accept jobs that would entitle them to the supplement)
