For any harmful substance available to the general public, the government should tax that substance at a level that discourages use of the substance.

Let’s look for an answer that involves the government taxing a harmful substance at a level that discourages use of the substance. Wrong answers will probably involve taxes of substances that aren’t harmful or failure to tax a harmful substance at a level that discourages use of the substance.

(A) concerns raising taxes for the purpose of raising revenue. It’s not clear whether this discourages people from using sugar or is designed to discourage use.

(B) involves a tax that is NOT expected to affect use of the substance.

(D) involves not raising a tax because of a higher tax’s impact on an industry. This doesn’t follow a principle advocating that the government should tax something.

(E) involves lowering a tax to encourage research. This doesn’t involve setting tax at a level that discourages use of the harmful substance.
