Government spokesman: The least disruptive way for a government to recoup the cost of student loans is to increase borrowers' interest rates gradually over the life of each loan. But in the state of Vitulia, interest rates are as low as they have been in decades and legislators have promised to keep them that way. Therefore, the least disruptive way to collect student loans in Vitulia will be to increase the sums students are required to pay each month in order to shorten the life of each loan.
Which of the following is an assumption of the spokesman’s argument?
【选项】
The rate of student loan repayment would not increase in the state of Vitulia if interest rate payments were increased in proportion to loan duration.
