Politicians often advocate increased overall economic productivity while ignoring its drawbacks. For example, attempting to increase the productivity of a corporation means attempting to increase its profitability, which typically leads to a reduction in the number of workers employed by that corporation. Thus, attempting to increase productivity in the economy as a whole may benefit business owners, but will increase the number of unemployed workers. The reasoning in the argument is most vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that the argument ['unfairly criticizes politicians in general on the basis of the actions of a few who are unwilling to consider the drawbacks of attempting to increase productivity', 'fails to address all potential drawbacks and benefits of attempting to increase productivity at a single corporation', 'presumes, without providing justification, that increased unemployment is sufficient reason to abandon increased productivity as an economic goal', 'fails to justify its presumption that attempting to increase productivity in the economy as a whole would produce results similar to those produced by attempting to increase productivity in a single corporation']
