What? Can you explain your question please?
The correct answer is: B. too many Irish living in poverty.
In his recognized essay, A Modest Proposal, Swift tackles the terrible social problem that Ireland was suffering: poverty and, with it, the heavy prejudice against poor people that social inequality had generated. Using a rather unusual approach to shock the audience (suggesting that poor parents should sell their kids in the meat market or even eat them), he engages the subject head-on.
