Passage Summary: Lambert argues that taxing drivers for buses they don't use is unfair, but Keziah counters that drivers already get more than their fair share of tax money compared to bus riders.

Conclusion: The proposed gasoline tax is a move toward a more equitable distribution of transportation funding rather than an unfair burden.

Reasoning: Current government spending per user is significantly higher for highways than for mass transit systems.

Analysis: This is a Method of Reasoning question, so we need to look at how Keziah structures her rebuttal. She doesn't deny Lambert's claim that drivers will pay for services they don't use; instead, she introduces new information to reframe the definition of 'fairness.' By pointing out the existing disparity in per-user spending, she suggests that the tax is a corrective measure for an ongoing imbalance. Look for an answer choice that describes this strategy of providing a broader context to challenge a specific characterization.
