Although that shifted bulge might seem to run counter to what many might presume would be the case, there is a reasonable explanation for the bulge effect. As an economy begins develop, an initial wave of envy tends to trigger robberies, including violent robberies. As the economy develops further, a greater percentage of that society exits poverty, which in turn reduces envy, and thereby the number of robberies. Therefore, we can expect Baltria to soon see its violent robbery rate decrease given that its economy has begun to develop over the last several years.<\/p>\n<p>Which one of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?<\/p>\n<p>\u24b6 Once an economy begins to develop, there tends to be a tightening of law enforcement, and punishment for violent crime offenses.<\/p>\n<p>\u24b7 Once an economy develops, a spill-off effect can help bolster the economies of neighboring countries, further reinforcing economic development.<\/p>\n<p>\u24b8 Baltria's economic development will not stall in the near-future.<\/p>\n<p>\u24b9 Baltrian leaders are committed to making Baltria one of the most economically advanced nations in the region.<\/p>\n<p>\u24ba No other country in the region has a violent robbery rate as high as that of Baltria\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/forum\/cr-assumption-series-2-violent-forms-of-robbery-199493.html\">Question Discussion &amp; Explanation<\/a><br \/>\n<strong>Correct Answer<\/strong> <span style=\"background-color: #fff; color: #fff;\">- C -<\/span> (click and drag your mouse to see the answer)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Like these questions?<\/strong> Get the GMAT Club question collection: <a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/forum\/inference-revision-government-restrictions-have-severely-limited-193148.html\">on your Kindle<\/a> OR <a href=\"https:\/\/click.linksynergy.com\/fs-bin\/stat?id=PJTlq5NYqfE&amp;offerid=146261&amp;type=3&amp;subid=blog&amp;tmpid=1826&amp;RD_PARM1=http%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252Fus%252Fapp%252Fgmat-toolkit%252Fid328345537%253Fmt%253D8%2526uo%253D6%2526partnerId%253D30\">on your iPhone\/iPad<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/category\/blog\/gmat-tests\/\"><strong>Browse all GMAT Questions of the Day<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Subscribe to GMAT Question of the Day:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/feedburner.google.com\/fb\/a\/mailverify?uri=GMAT-Question-of-the-day&amp;loc=en_US\">E-mail<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/GMAT-Question-of-the-day\">RSS<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Math What is the hundreds digit of ?
