  • Sentence C agrees with Andrew Carnegie's gospel that wealth should be gathered by the few, who will then enable the masses to reap the principal benefits.  

  • The reason Andrew Carnegie gave for his position is that distributing handouts to the poor will not yield much benefits to the society.

Sentence C is not suggesting:
