medium · LSAT Logical Reasoning
A politician declares: "Voters in this district care deeply about education. It follows that every single person in this district wants the proposed new school tax to pass."
The reasoning in the politician's argument is most vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that it:
- presumes that education matters more to voters than concerns such as public safety
- takes for granted that taxes are required in order to fund schools at all
- assumes that valuing a general aim guarantees unanimous support for one particular means of pursuing it
- neglects to state how much the proposed tax would cost the typical voter
- treats the views of a few vocal residents as representative of the entire district
