Passage Summary: Some argue we shouldn't limit population growth because every time the population goes up, the economy seems to grow right along with it.

Conclusion: Society should not implement measures to control population growth.

Reasoning: Historical data shows that increases in population have been followed by increases in economic growth, suggesting a causal link between the two.

Analysis: This argument falls into the classic 'correlation equals causation' trap, specifically the 'post hoc' variety where one assumes that because B followed A, A must have caused B. It’s like assuming your lucky socks caused your team to win just because you wore them during the championship. To find the parallel flaw, look for a choice that observes a sequence of events and then concludes that the first event is a necessary cause that should be encouraged or left alone.
