Question

Which of the following most logically completes the argument?

Answer 1

Answer:

B) many agencies created under the New Deal were designed to provide financial relief, not to maintain economic stability.

Explanation:

This option sounds more logical because it fits into the view of most economists, which is to achieve economic stability. However, those agencies weren't bringing economic stability but just giving out financial relief which does not guarantee economic stability.

Just as the old saying goes, "prevention is better than a cure" Hence, many agencies created under the New Deal were designed to provide financial relief (''a cure") but were not bringing about/maintaining economic stability ("a prevention").
