Question

a. government passes a law increasing taxes on banks two days later there are several bank robberies. A politician who opposed the taxes claims that the new law is causing bank robberies. which of the following explain the flaw in his argument

Answer 1

The answer choices haven't been posted in the question, but probably the most glaring logical flaw here is that the tax increases affect the banks, not the robbers. In other words, the increased taxes have no direct relation to the bank robbers or their motives for robbing the banks. Consequently, the new law could not have been responsible for the uptick in robberies.
