Hello! For some reason, I cannot wrap my head around this question. Correct answer (A) was one of the first answer choices I marked off because I read "excessive public expenditure on social programs" as the opponents' arguments (when taken in context that the Politician thinks INSTEAD of that, they should talk about the main cause of deficit spending). Can someone please help?
I had my answer choices originally narrowed down to (D) and (E), selecting (E) after many minutes of frustration (aka total guess).
