Lambert: The proposal to raise gasoline taxes to support mass transit networks is unfair. Why should drivers who will never use train or bus lines be forced to pay for them?
Keziah: You have misunderstood. The government has always spent far more, per user, from general revenue sources to fund highways than to fund mass transit. The additional revenue from the gasoline tax will simply allow the government to make its distribution of transportation funds more equitable.
Keziah uses which one of the following argumentative strategies in replying to Lambert?
(A) elaborating the context of the issue in order to place the proposal in a more favorable light
(B) appealing the principle that what benefits society as a whole benefits all individual within that society
(C) challenging the presupposition that fairness is an appropriate criterion on which to judge the matter
(D) demonstrating that the proposed tax increase will not result in increased expenses for drivers
(E) declining to argue a point with someone who is poorly informed on the matter under discussion
