Given the current economic climate, universal healthcare is an impossibility in the United States. More than half of all U.S. households report feeling overwhelmed by expenses, and many people are struggling to find additional sources of income. Funding such a massive program would require significant tax increases, adding to the financial burden of many individuals. The employer-sponsored healthcare system currently in place keeps taxes low, protecting our nation’s economy.
Which of the following, if true, would most weaken the argument above?
A. Many U.S. citizens enjoy sizeable tax breaks for medical expenses.
B. Universal healthcare would reduce the financial burden on employers, resulting in significant job growth and wage increases.
C. A majority of profitable, private health insurers have indicated that they expect to increase their payrolls in the coming quarter.
D. Pharmaceutical companies have fewer incentives to innovate new drugs in a universal healthcare system.
E. Most U.S. citizens depend on their employers for health coverage and could not afford comparable coverage under the current system.
