Surveying this crisis is going to take everything we've got.

Surveying this crisis is going to take everything we've got. In addiction to ... massive retraining, we may also need subsidies-direct or channeled through the private sector-for a racially expanding service sector. Not merely things like environmental clean-up, but basic human services. (Alvin Toffler, Previews and Premises (New York: Bantam Books, 1985), p. 57.) Which of the following statements is inconsistent with the above?

Sujit, I believe the passage should be the following

Surviving this crisis is going to take everything we've got. In addition to ... massive retraining, we may also need subsidies-direct or channeled through the private sector-for a radially expanding service sector. Not merely things like environmental clean-up, but basic human services. (Alvin Toffler, Previews and Premises (New York: Bantam Books, 1985), p. 57.)
