Question

All governments (cities, counties, states, and nations) have to raise money through taxes, called "revenue." This money helps pay
the salaries of all the workers who provide services to the citizens, such as teachers, police, and soldiers. It also pays for the cost of
building highways, schools, hospitals, and other facilities. Which statement best describes how tax cuts might impact state
services?

A. Tax cuts might help the government create more state services.
B. Tax cuts might cause the government to create more roads and schools.
C. Tax cuts might cause the government to reduce state services.
D. Tax cuts would raise more revenue for county and state services.

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Explanation:

When the government earns less money by reducing taxes, they cannot pay for more state services. This is because they don’t have the revenue to do so and can’t afford it.
