标题: 纠结的GWD！！！求助！求助！！！
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In order to raise revenue, the federal government planned a tax amnesty program that allows tax delinquents to pay all owed tax without added financial penalty. However, economists projected that the federal government would collect a far lower percentage of total tax owed by delinquents than did state governments implementing similar programs.
Which of the following, if true, would most contribute to an explanation of the economists’ projections?
Similar plan，state比fed成功，解释原因。其实就是寻找两者差异。
E说state欠税的人是因为失察没有tax，而不是决定不交税。暗示就是说fed会因为不想交而不交，如果是因为不想交而不交的话，那么plan当然没有用
A.! Tax amnesty programs are only successful if they are widely publicized. 削弱
B.Most people who honestly pay their state tax are equally honest in paying their federal tax.
C.Although federal tax delinquents usually must pay high financial penalties, the states require far lower financial penalties.
D.The state tax rate varies considerably from state to state, but the federal tax is levied according to laws which apply to citizens of all the states.
E.Unlike most federal tax delinquents, most state tax delinquents fail to pay state tax because of an oversight失察rather than a decision not to pay.

我的想法是C，因为FED的逃税罚款力度更大，因此相比于FED，人们更倾向于逃STATE的税，所以当采取这项措施的时候，换回来的STATE税会多于FED的，我的逻辑问题在哪里？？？纠结啊！！！！！

choice C is a irrelevant answer..you should read the information stated in the passage carefully.
the FD government plan： a taxamnesty program that allows tax delinquents to pay all owed tax without addedfinancial penalty
economist project this plan will have what consequence？the federal government would collect a far lowerpercentage of total tax owed by delinquents than did state governmentsimplementing similar programs.
the explanation of economist is dealing with the program which enable tax evader to pay owed tax without penalty...so penalty is assumed not existing

做逻辑题的时候急不得，不能过分推理也不能无中生有，看清楚结论的讨论范围这样才能更快的帮你排除无关选项

Premise:
The federal government planned a tax amnesty program that
allows tax delinquents to pay all owed tax without added financial penalty.
Conclusion:
Economists projected that the federal government would collect a far lower percentage of total tax owed by delinquents than did state governments implementing similar programs.
E is right since it says that the delinquents in State tax are simply forgetting to pay while the delinguqents in Federal tax are determined NOT to pay. If this is true, even if the penalty is removed, those who evaded federal tax will not pay the Federal tax since they have made up their mind not to.
In E, those who did not pay federal tax have decided not to pay the tax while those who did not pay state tax have simply forgotten to pay. Therefore, the former won't pay back the owned tax with or without a tax amnesty while the latter might.
Federal: 不想交的人, with or without the program, they WILL NOT pay tax since they do not intend to pay in the first place.
State: 忘了交的人, they might pay the tax under the new program once they remember to pay.
C), on the other hand, does not support the conclusion that the federal government would receive lower percentage of its deliquent tax than the state government. Because C) only provides a half assumption - federal penalty is higher - but lacks the other half assumption -higher penalty leads to lower payback. What if people would be more likely to pay back when the penalty is higher?
