Question # 1

In many hospitals, more and more monitoring is being carried out by automated equipment instead of humanemployees who previously carried out the work. This is done in an attempt to save hospital expenses. However, many employees who lose their jobs to automation will need government assistance to get by, and the same corporations that are laying people off will eventually pay for that assistance through increased taxes and unemployment insurance payments.

Q:Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the author's argument?

Choose an answer

Most of the new jobs created by automated equipment pay less than the jobs that were eliminated by automated equipment did

Many hospitals that have failed to automate have seen their profits decline

Unemployment insurance and taxes are paid also by corporations that are not automating

Many workers who have already lost their jobs to automated equipment have been unable to find new employment
