December 1991 LSAT - Section 4 - Question 21
Emil-Kunkin August 21, 2024
L claims that her idea could save 5000 lives a year. T finds this implausible as it would mean that the population in that counterfactual would be 50000 higher in ten years. This is a weak argument, as there is no reason that a population that is a mere 50k larger is impossible to fathom. It is also weak since a good num bar of those 50k lives saved would have died of other causes in those 10 years.
