In 1992, 5 percent of every dollar paid in tax went to support the unemployed citizens. In 1998, 8 percent of every dollar paid in tax went to such funds, although that unemployment rate has decreased in 1998 than in 1992.
Each of the following, if true, could explain the simultaneous increase in percent of every dollar paid in tax to support the unemployed citizens and decrease in the number of unemployment rate EXCEPT:

A.On average, each unemployed citizen received more money in 1998 than 1992.

B.On average, people paid less tax in 1998 than in 1992.

C.The individuals had paid more tax than did enterprises during this period.

D.Income before tax has significantly decreased since 1992.

E.The number of tax evaders rose sharply between 1992 and 1998.

I would go with C as it is the only answer not connected with the sense of the argument - simultaneous increase in percent of every dollar paid in tax to support the unemployed citizens and decrease in the number of unemployment rate.
