Option 2 : If completely banned, alcohol would still be sold in black markets at higher prices.

The statements mention that banning alcohol would not be a solution to alcohol addiction in poor families but it would further aggravate their financial problems. Option 1 cannot support the statements as it does not give any reason for addicts not wanting to work without alcohol. Similarly, option 3 cannot be right as it also does not give a reason as to why banning alcohol would be good for the economy. Option 4 is irrelevant because what the addicts want would not be taken into consideration when a decision is being made for their benefit. Option 5 states that banning alcohol would leave no incentive for addicts to work and earn but the statements mention unemployment as an existing problem even with alcohol, so it would not make a difference. Only option 2 gives a reason as to why banning alcohol would further cause financial problems for the poor families. Hence, option 2 is the right answer.
