Question : 109 of 150

Marks: +1, -0

A government's proposed 8 percent cut in all subsidies to art groups will be difficult for those groups to absorb. As can be seen, however, from their response to last year’s cut, it will not put them out of existence. Last year there was also an 8 percent cut, and though private fund-raising was very difficult for the art groups in the current recessionary economy, they did survive. The reasoning in the argument is flawed because the argument

Relies without warrant on the probability that the economy will improve.
Overlooks the possibility that the cumulative effect of the cuts will be more than the arts group can withstand.
Equates the mere survival of the arts groups with their flourishing.
Does not raise the issue of whether there should be any government subsidies to arts groups at all.
