This doesnt look like a standard question in the first place- note the question does not ask for "most weakens" - so i dont know if there is one answer- any answer that weakens the conclusion will be right. 1 and 2 dont imply that they will cause any sort of support for the elderly. d could be possible because they clearly state that as long as join family system was in place elderly were sheltered. c is also doubtful as just because a country is developed they need not proved the same kind of benefits.
undoubtedly this isn't a std question. i'm supposed to appear for clat this year & this year's paper will be fraught with critical reasoning questions.i've joined this club just to get my simplest of doubts clarified so that there isn't any iota of doubt in my mind. i've just completed my 12th.the exam is imminent & i really need your help & guidance to deal with cr ques.i earnestly request you to cope with the silly,frivolous & unstandardised ques that i'll be asking. PLZ DO REPLY TO MY QUERIES.

What is clat? I would strongly advise you against posting Non standard / non GMAT questions here. This is a forum for gmat prep. Im annoyed that i wasted 3 minutes on trying to figure out this one. You may confuse other folks by posting these questions here and waste their time too.
if you want to learn CR then learn the GMAT questions and ask relevant doubts.
seems as if you aren't interested in helping me out. as far as the other folks are concerned i'm sure they are smart enough & decisive & won't get perplexed by the unstandardised questions. anyways, i won't be posting such unstandardised ques. again & sorry as u had to waste 3 min on solving it out.

I think it is C.
A is irrelevant as growth in investible proportion no way relates to whether people should build a strong financial base. B brings an alien and new idea. D strengthens the idea as that option supports the last line of the passage " so,it is advisable that the working population give a serious thought to building a financial base for itself."
I don't have OA but I'd say there is no other option closer to weaken the conclusion than C.
