Explanation

An effective argumentative claim takes a clear, debatable position that can be supported with evidence. Choice C argues that the free enterprise system can push some people out of business and favor large, wealthy companies, a claim readers could investigate and challenge. Choice D mainly describes how the system works, rather than making an argument.
