I'm a little confused as A seems to restate the conclusion. How is this not correct?

    Hi @thisguy-07, Thanks for the question! Senator Strongwood argues that reducing the capital gains tax would lead to an increase in the federal deficit. However, we can't conclude that an increase in the capital gains tax would lead to a decrease in the federal deficit. It might be true that it has no effect on the federal deficit, for example. Hope this helps! Feel free to ask any further questions if you have them.
