Question

With Proposition 13, if you bought your house 11 years ago for $75,000, your property tax would be approximately $914 a year (1 percent -of $75,000 increased by 2 percent each year for 11 years); and if P your neighbor bought an identical house next door to you for $200,000 this year, his tax would be $2,000 (1 percent of $200,000). Without Proposition 13, both you and your neighbor would pay $6,000 a year in property taxes (3 percent of $200,000). Which of the following is the conclusion for which the author most likely is arguing in the passage above?

(a) Proposition 13 is unconstitutional because it imposes an unequal tax on properties of equal value.

B) If Proposition 13 is repealed, every homeowner is likely to experience a substantial increase in property taxes.

(c) By preventing inflation from driving up property values, Proposition 13 has saved homeowners
thousands of dollars in property taxes.

(d) If Proposition 13 is not repealed, identical properties will continue to be taxed at different rates.

What will be the correct answer?

Question

A law requiring companies to offer employees unpaid time off to care for their children will harm the economic competitiveness of our nation’s businesses. Companies must be free to set their own employment policies without mandated parental-leave regulations. Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the conclusion of the argument above?

(a) A parental-leave law will serve to strengthen the family as a social institution in this country.

(b)Many businesses in this country already offer employees some form of parental leave.

(c) Some of the countries with the most economically competitive businesses have strong parental-leave regulations.

(d) Only companies with one hundred or more employees would be subject to the proposed parental leave law.

Also,can someone solve this?
According to me the answer should be [b] but, official answer’s [d].

Hi All
do anyone have any short CR notes? Like a quick summary of what we should consider for all types of CR questions — for example, whether outside information can be considered, whether to negate the answer, etc. Basically, short notes for all 7–8 types of CR questions that we can quickly glance at while practicing.
