Opponents of drug laws that forbid using marijuana argue

My two cents -

1. Even though greater % of accidents are caused by marijuana users than alcohol user,that does not confirm that marijuana users are harming other people more. Example : accidents % marijuana - 10, alcohol - 9 and rash driving- 40. A third cause is more pronounced than Marijuana. Where as In option E, marijuana users are clearly causing problem for others.

2.C is a classic example of an answer option where a comparison is made.Often such answer choices are not the 1 preference.This you will observe in number of practice questions.

In all C leaves many avenues open for assumption,where as E closes the gap all through.

Two years ago, the human resources department at Harrison's Technologies had 175 sexual harassment cases open, a number that at that time led all companies in the sector. At that time, a typical claim took six months to process and clear. In response to this high number, the CEO's Advisory Team published a comprehensive set of guidelines for training employees in the identification and avoidance of behaviors that could constitute sexual harassment. At this writing, the human resources department has only sixty sexual harassment cases open. Clearly, the guidelines published by the CEO's Advisory Team were effective in reducing the occurrence of new sexual harassment claims at Harrison's Technologies.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the conclusion above?

Two of the six members of the CEO's Advisory Team were found guilty of sexually harassing members of the secretarial staff
New paperwork and procedure, also introduced two years ago, has allowed the human resources department at Harrison's Technologies to process and close almost all new claims of sexual harassment in less than one month.
The human resources department at Anthony Information Industries, a principal rival of Harrison's with a similar number of employees, opened no new sexual harassment claims in the past year.
Independent consultants using scientifically designed surveys have found that the majority of current employees at Harrison's Technologies are not properly educated on exactly what behaviors constitute sexual harassment.
The majority of sexual harassment claims lead to the termination of employees found guilty; new employees hired to fill these positions need to be trained in the guidelines.

can someone help me with this question?

None of the other options create element of doubt here.E is clean and clear.

More so, as most of the responsible users do, I do not attempt to answer a question if I get it wrong on first go.

Hi garimavyas,

Why do you think its a stupid question? I ask as I feel its a very GMAT like question..

Thank you @IanStewart for your valuable explanation

E says that marijuana users are affecting other ppl too.Thus,it weakens.
