Hello,
Could anybody please let me know why choices B and D are wrong? The correct answer is A. I learn more by finding out why a choice is wrong ...
Thank you.
-----------------------------------
195. A proposed change to federal income tax laws would eliminate deductions from taxable income for donations a taxpayer has made to charitable and educational institutions. If this change were adopted, wealthy individuals would no longer be permitted such deductions. Therefore, many charitable and institutions would have to reduce services, and some would have to close their doors.
The argument above assumes which of the following?
(A) Without incentives offered by federal income tax laws, at least some wealthy individuals would not donate as much money to charitable and educational institutions as they otherwis would have.
(B) Money contributed by individuals who make their donations because of provisions in the federal tax laws provides the only source of funding for many charitable and educational institutions.
(C) The primary reason for not adopting the proposed change in the federal income tax laws cited above is to protect wealthy individuals from having to pay higher taxes.
(D) Wealthy individuals who donate money to charitable and educational institutions are the only individuals who donate money to such institutions.
(E) Income tax laws should be changed to make donations to charitable and educational institutions the only permissible deductions from taxable income.

B to me, looks little broader than the topic. The topic only covers wealthy individuals. But B talks about all individuals. So I believe this option is not safe.
D. is too strong an assumption to make.
I believe in general we should keep away from very strong statements.
A provides us with the best choice.
Hope this helps!
