the argument of this type: if x increase/decrease, y will increase/decrease

prethink : assumption is y depends only x

weakener: y depends on other factor z which can change y

look for other factor

A match.

I'm still struggling to figure out why A.

Is it because A states the word "correspondingly"? Without this word is A still valid?

Lets compare

Inorder to weakening the conclusion , need to attack any of the following

giving tax incentives => no increase in borrowing => helping business
1 2 3

(A) When levels of personal retirement savings increase, consumer borrowing always increases
correspondingly.
this attacks 2 , directly .
DONT think that consumer borrowing is not same as business borrowing . DONT APPLY YOUR LOGIC. Consumer can be running business . He is as consumer of the borrowed money.

(C) Even with tax incentives, some people will choose not to increase their levels of retirement savings.
Why this is wrong?
simply because of 'some' . If is was 'all' instead of some then this is more likely ans then A (but this is unlikely on GMAT)

wow, question was raised in 2009 and im ans in 2013 :P
