Legislator: We should not waste any more of the taxpayers' money on the government' s job-creation program. The unemployment rate in this country has actually risen since the program was begun, so the program has clearly been a failure. Which of the following is an assumption on which the legislator's argument depends? ['Other government programs are no more effective in reducing unemployment than is the job-creation program.', 'The unemployment rate is higher now than at any time before the inception of the job-creation program.', 'If the job-creation program had been run more efficiently, it could have better served its purpose.', 'The unemployment rate would not have risen even more than it has if the job- creation program had not been in existence.']
