The government institutes a new job-training program to prepare economically disadvantaged citizens for higher-paying, technologically advanced jobs. this action benefits the goal of equity by(a) ensuring workers are more productive(b) minimize the education gap(c) raising government spending(d) reducing unemployment

(B) helping minimize the education gap

Explanation:

Education is the tool that prepares people for the job market and for the world. Unfortunately, however, not everyone has access to quality education. Some people have more resources and can study in better schools and courses and this creates a competitive advantage for these people in the job market. If the government institutes a technology training program for economically disadvantaged people, it will be narrowing this skill gap between people who have been well educated and people who do not have adequate access to education. This will enable them to access the labor market under more balanced conditions.
