Bamian Politician: We , as leaders of Bamia, need to implement, and supplement, reforms in the Solomon Senior Care Act that begin to bend the cost curve. In drafting any new reform, we should not penalize the most vulnerable among us by increasing their costs because they are older or sicker.

The argument by the Bamian leader above presumes which of the following?

A. Senior care is the top priority of the Bamian government.
B. Not all of the leaders support the implementation and supplementary reforms that would be suggested by the Solomon Senior Care Act.
C. The government has not yet exhausted all of its prospective measures in regard to the Solomon Senior Care Act.
D. Alzheimer's is an ever growing problem among aging seniors of Bamia.
E. Costs of senior care are currently too high for most seniors.

We need to find what presupposes the argument by the Banian leader.
Premise: The need to implement and supplement, reforms in the Solomon Care Act.

OPTION A - INCORRECT
It seems important, but the argument does not exactly presume that senior Care is the top priority of the Bamian government.

OPTION B - INCORRECT
In the argument, there is no information or evidence to prove that this is true.

OPTION C - CORRECT
This is true because they are yet to draft a new reform. The politicians were only stating a part of the new reform they are about to draft which means that they have not yet exhausted all their prospective measures in regard to the Solomon Senior Care Act.

OPTION D - INCORRECT
We are not directly concerned with the illness the aging seniors of Bamia suffer from.

OPTION E - INCORRECT
The argument is about not increasing the costs, not that it is too high for the seniors.
