Economist: If business tax rates are high, lowering business tax rates should increase a nation's per capita income by attracting new businesses to the nation and leaving businesses more money to spend on hiring and salaries. But most of the nations with the lowest business tax rates also are among the countries with relatively low per capita incomes. Which of the following, if true, would most help resolve the apparent discrepancy that the economist describes? A. The nations with the lowest tax rates are least able to help fund the infrastructure and government services that are critical for businesses to prosper. B. Some of the nations that have lowered their business tax rates had relatively high per capita incomes even before doing so. C. Nations in which businesses have more money to spend on hiring and salaries tend to have higher per capita incomes, on average. D. Some nations among those with the highest per capita incomes also collect the most per capita in taxes, even though they are not among the nations with the highest tax rates. E. Even if a nation lowers its business tax rates enough to attract new businesses. that nation's business tax rates will not necessarily be among the world's lowest.
