very long time that they have to pay the highest 

amount of taxes, yet they are not allowed to directly 

advertise to their clientele. �They believe this is 

inherently unfair and actually causing a loss of 

revenue to the government, as by allowing them to 

advertise, the overall sales of alcohol will go up even 

further, and bring in greater revenue for the 

government. The government does not pay heed to 

this demand as it does not see merit in the argument 

of the alcohol companies.

�

Which, out of the following, justifies the action of 

the government?

1. The government’s responsibility is not only to earn profit but also to ensure that its citizens are healthy and wise.
2. The government can clearly see through the fact that an increase in alcohol consumption is not actually possible.
