When people evade income taxes by not declaring taxable income, a vicious cycle results. 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 hiding taxable income.

The vicious cycle described above could not result unless which of the following were true?

小女愚钝,求助大家一道逻辑

og_11_v70/ og_10_122

When people evade income taxes by not declaring taxable income, a vicious cycle results. Tax evasion forces lawmakers to raise income tax rates, which causes the tax burden on non-evading taxpayers to become heavier. This, in turn, encourages even more taxpayers to evade income taxes by hiding taxable income.

 

The vicious cycle described above could not result unless which of the following were true?

 

(a)   An increase in tax rates tends to function as an incentive for taxpayers to try to increase their pretax incomes.

(b)   Some methods for detecting tax evaders, and thus recovering some tax revenue lost through evasion, bring in more than they cost, but their success rate varies from years to year.

(c)   When lawmakers 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.

(d)  No one who routinely hides some taxable income can be induced by a lowering of tax rates to stop hiding such income unless fines for evaders are raised at the same time.
            
(C)

(e)   Taxpayers do not differ from each other with respect to the rate of taxation that will cause them to evade taxes.

麻烦大家帮我看看,虽然知道答案是C了,但是对于E的把握不是很明确,这里E的意思是说taspayer对于不同的taxation rate的态度不会变还是说不同的taxpayers对于taxation rate的态度无差别啊。拜托大家帮我解答一下吧。谢谢谢谢了

个人意见:

我想这题就充分展现了咱们中国人不用母语考试比他们美国人吃的亏……唉母语啊……

关于E,我查了collins上面是这么说的:You use with respect to to say what something relates to. In British English, you can also say in respect of. (FORMAL)

我个人的理解是把每个人的收入以及是否逃避和逃避多少做一个简化,每个人只有两个选择:1. 一点都不逃。 2. 全逃
那么E应该就好理解了,是说交税的人对于税率达到多高的时候决定逃税的这个税率值(rate of taxation)的态度完全一样,也就是说他们遇到某一个税率的时候就都逃税,这样的话到某一个时刻政府会发现一块钱都收不上来(当然是题目中的假象情况,不实际且太极端),那么再提高税率也不会增加税收,那么自然就没有那个cycle

我想有点像营销里讲的那个撇脂定价吧,有了不同的level,才能够从中获益的~~
