govt workers

15. In the effort to fire a Civil Service employee, his or her manager may have to spend up to $100,000 of tax money. Since Civil Service employees know how hard it is to fire them, they tend to loaf. This explains in large part why the government is so inefficient.
It can be properly inferred on the basis of the statements above that the author believes which of the following?
I. Too much job security can have a negative influence on workers.
II. More government workers should be fired.
III. Most government workers are Civil Service employees.
(A) I only
(B) I and III only
(C) II only
(D) I, II, and III
(E) III only

y cant it be B?

OA - A

I will go with A.

While the # 1 can cleary be inferred, # 3 is insidious because, I think, could be few influential Civil Service employees in the government who make it inefficient. If it is the case # 3 can't be inferred.

Thoughts?

The correct answer choice should have I and should not have II, Which leaves us with A & B

It can't be B because it reverses the info we know from the stimulus.

We know that Most civil service employees are Govt workers. III does the polar opposite.
Please do not post answer along with the Question you post/ask

Let people discuss the Questions with out seeing answers.

here it is said that civil employees loaf around, thus the govt is inefficient. so doesnt it mean that CE must be making a big part of it to base the inefficiency of govt on them?
