Attached is the question I got from my Veritas Prep Test. The OA given is A. I have my doubts on the answer.
As per the argument, a tax on disposable plastic bags should be implemented as this will have a desired effect of reducing the number of plastic bags being discarded.
A: This compares a similar tax in Europe. What has worked in Europe might not work in the US.
B: This choice shows that given a financial incentive people are willing to reduce the number of bags that they discard. I think this would strengthen the argument, as people are ready to earn or save money (showing financial incentive) by reusing the bag and hence reducing degradation.
