In a recession, a decrease in consumer spending causes many businesses to lay off workers or even to close. Workers who lose their jobs in a recession usually cannot find new jobs. The result is an increase in the number of people who are jobless. Recovery from a recession is defined by an increase in consumer spending and an expansion of business activity that creates a need for additional workers. But businesspeople generally have little confidence in the economy after a recession and ttherefore delay hiring additional workers as long as possible. The statements above, if true, provide most support for which one of the following conclusions? ['Sometimes recovery from a recession does not promptly result in a decrease in the number of people who are jobless.', 'Governmental intervention is required in order for an economy to recover from a recession.', 'Employees of businesses that close during a recession make up the majority of the workers who lose their jobs during that recession.', 'Workers who lose their jobs during a recession are likely to get equally good jobs when the economy recovers.']
