标题: 请问这道题怎么理解？想不通啊...

In two months, the legal minimum wage in the country of Kirlandia will increase from five Kirlandic dollars(KD5.00) Per hour to KD5.50 per hour. Opponents of this increase have argued that the resulting rise in wages will drive the inflation rate up. In fact its impact on wages will probably be negligible, since only a very small proportion of all Kirfandic workers are currently receiving less than KD5.50 per hour.

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?

A. Most people in Kirlandia who are currently earning the minimum wage have been employed at their current jobs for less than a year.

B. Some firms in Kirlandia have paid workers considerably less than KD5.00 per hour, in violation of Kirlandic employment regulations.

C. Many businesses hire trainees at or near the minimum wage but must reward trained workers by keeping their pay levels above the pay level of trainees.

D. The greatest growth in Kirlandia’s economy in recent years has been in those sectors where workers earn wages that tend to be much higher than the minimum wage.

E. The current minimum wage is insufficient for a worker holding only one job to earn enough to support a family, even when working full time at that job.

答案是C。错选了B。
C到底是如何削弱的？请NN指教啊！

1.最低工资针对全体人；
2.trainee和worker算2类。

谢谢回答！
是不是意思就是：由于收入底线（实习生的工资）提高了，那些workers的工资也不得不提高，由此很多职工（trainer）的工资水平会在最低工资政策出台后迅速攀升，从而拉动了整体工资的继续上升，从而增加了反对者认为的：最低工资出台-->工资上涨-->通货膨胀。
可以这么想吗？
