The words "immediate" and "now" oriented my thinking around time, which is why I assumed that there would be a strike in the future. I'm sure the test writers did this on purpose but jeeeezzzz!
I found this question to be simple. My thought process was in general people go on strikes to gain something out of it. If you look at it from that perspective, going on strike would cost you a job for a little bit, but think about the benefits of getting a raise from the outcome of the strike. That is why C is correct because it fails to consider that. E is incorrect because it goes against the context of the stimulus.
I understand the reasoning of why C is right and that was my original choice but ended up switching it to E because of the conclusion being "not striking now" which in my mind implied that there would be a better time to strike which is why we need to save the funds. I guess thats my bad for assuming those things but i feel like those are fair assumptions and that there is a good case for E being the correct answer choice.
I was between C and E and ended up choosing incorrectly. I picked E because the argument says "immediate strike," and the conclusion states that "we must not strike now." Those words made me think that this was an argument about when / when not to strike. If we were supposed to just consider cost-benefit analysis, shouldn't the conclusion just say "we must not strike," period, with no timeline descriptor? Am I looking too far into this?

All these 1 star questions are giving me a false sense of security
22 secs under
somehow I got this one wrong but the ones with the higher difficulty correct maybe its time to take a break lol
#help
When dealing with "the argument is must vulnerable to" questions are we looking to attack the premise or the conclusion?
Me: yay! I got it right!
Also me: only one star difficulty :( doesn’t count
Why are we this way???

I did this very quickly and got it wrong because it didn't register my click on answer choice C. -_-
As a union organizer, I should’ve taken less time to get this right LOL
I changed my answer from C to E on BR... bruh. That premise of "an immediate strike" is evil
i keep getting the smaller levels wrong :(
For me, D was so tempting, but I chose C. I was shocked to find out this was a level 1 question 😭

labeling this as a one-star difficulty hurt my teeny weeny feelings

Please lord, give me logic reasoning filled with questions as easy as this one. Amen.
It came down to A or C for me and I failed…
union's been on strike, he's down on his luck
