Many industrialized nations have reported a sharp rise in the per capita cost of health care -- the total amount paid in the nation for health care, divided by the number of people. This increase is likely to continue since the population of these countries is predominantly older, and elderly people have more reasons to need health care than do younger people
Which one of the following points out an error in the reasoning behind the prediction made above?
A. It fails to consider the actual frequency of use of health care services by younger people and the resulting costs of that use.
B. It assumes that the cost of health care will remain stable at current levels.
C. It fails to cite actual numbers in making its claim.
D. It only considers the number of times someone might seek health care, rather than considering the cost of that care
E. It discusses health care in terms of two very broad-based segments of the community, without considering the actual composition of those segments.
