A law requiring companies to offer employees unpaid time off to care for their children will harm the economic competitiveness of our nation’s businesses. Companies must be free to set their own employment policies without mandated parental-leave regulations.
Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the conclusion of the argument above?
(A) A parental-leave law will serve to strengthen the family as a social institution in this country.
(B) Many businesses in this country already offer employees some form of parental leave.
(C) Some of the countries with the most economically competitive businesses have strong parental-leave regulations.
(D) Only companies with one hundred or more employees would be subject to the proposed parental-leave law.
(E) In most polls, a majority of citizens say they favor passage of a parental-leave law.

C.

Stimulus is about parental-leave regulations and economic competitiveness of our nation’s businesses so the only option that weakens the stimulus is C.

It should be either C or B. However C is the stronger answer because it does argue that strong parental leave will not impede the economic competitiveness. B does not talk about the economy impact on the nation.

I was thinking B is a best bet since some employers are already offering such unpaid time offs. But to support this, I assumed that the economic competitiveness is fine already and the passage of unpaid time off regulations will not have an impact on the economic competitiveness.

Can someone clarify whether assuming something like this is not appropriate?

Conclusion--companies should be free to create leave of abscence policies, and not be mandated by government regulations....because it can hurt the nations productivity

B--there's no logical comparison to weaken the arguement. Infact, this choices slightly strengthen the arguement.

C--weakens the arguement by providing a logical comparison.
