#38 why not A

I understand why E is the right answer and even though i picked it, i was torn between A&E. The fact that many valitania candidate spend some of their money , doesn't that mean that we have an alternate sources they are not entirely depending on the money they get from the high salary?

Hi Faith.. well for choice A it is not address the argument. So what they spend their own money for campaigns.. we do not know whether they benefit from serving in Valitanian politics

Hi @Faith-Kungu,

@Alex's response sums it up well. The conclusion in this stimulus is that Valitania paying high salaries to its elected politicians brings the wrong kind of people into politics. Whether or not they spend money to finance their own campaigns isn't really relevant to this conclusion, or to any of the premises. Hope this helps!
