Members of the staff at the local daycare suggest that parents would have more incentive to pick up their children on time if the parents were assessed a fine after arriving more than 10 minutes late to pick up their children.
Which of the following, assuming that it is a realistic possibility, argues the most strongly against the effectiveness of the suggestion above?
(A) By replacing social norms with market norms, fines might induce parents to weigh the "costs" of picking their children up late and, as a result, to frequently choose to be late.
(B) There might be irreconcilable disagreements among the daycare staff about whether the late fines should be imposed.
(C) Late fines might cause some parents to enroll their children in other daycares.
(D) Removing the late fine policy might actually increase the number of tardy pick-ups.
(E) Some parents might pick up their children late no matter what level of fine is imposed against them.
