Editorial:In Ledland, unemployed adults receive government assistance. To reduce unemployment, the government proposes to supplement the income of those who accept jobs that pay less than government assistance, thus enabling employers to hire workers cheaply. However, the supplement will not raise any worker's income above what government assistance would provide if he or she were not gainfully employed. Therefore, unemployed people will have no financial incentive to accept jobs that would entitle them to the supplement.

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

正确答案: C

求NN们分析一下这句话的结构,怎么能看出“工资补贴后还是超不过低保”呢?~

这是题目:
Editorial: In Ledland, unemployed adults receive government assistance.  To reduce unemployment, the government proposes to supplement the income of those who accept jobs that pay less than government assistance, thus enabling employers to hire workers cheaply. However, the supplement will not raise any worker’s income above what government assistance would provide if he or she were not gainfully employed.  Therefore, unemployed people will have no financial incentive to accept jobs that would entitle them to the supplement.
Which of the following, if true about Ledland, most seriously weakens the argument of the editorial?
A. The government collects no taxes on assistance it provides to unemployed individuals and their families.
B. Neighboring countries with laws that mandate the minimum wage an employer must pay an employee have higher unemployment rates than Ledland currently has.
C. People who are employed and look for a new job tend to get higher-paying jobs than job seekers who are unemployed.
D. The yearly amount unemployed people receive from government assistance is less than the yearly income that the government defines as the poverty level.
E. People sometimes accept jobs that pay relatively little simply because they enjoy the work.

然而,这个增补不会提高工人的收入于政府补给之上,如果这个工人没有被有益地雇佣。

调整语法语序后:

然而,如果这个工人未得到报酬颇丰的工作,这项增补计划对他的收入的增加不会超过政府救济金。

其实 举个简单的例子 假设 这个人去找工作,工资100元,增补计划50元,其总收入为150元,但是失业人口得到的救济金是200元。这样的情况下,谁会愿意去做事情而损失收入呢?

这种情况在经济学里是失业的一种情况,忘记是叫主动失业还是什么的 Voluntary Unemployment

报酬颇丰的工作?~我百度了下gainfully employed的意思是带薪工作。但我也觉得“带薪工作”这样翻译不通啊!必须所有的工作都是带薪的,要不然谁干啊” 但貌似gainfully真的没报酬颇丰的意思~~
