Đáp án B

Kiến thức về đại từ quan hệ

Đại từ quan hệ “what, which, that” đều thay thế cho từ/ cụm từ chỉ vật.

Trong câu này chọn “who” vì cần một đại từ quan hệ thay thế cho người.

“who” thay thế cho “those” chứ không phải " pocket”

Tạm dịch: Welfare states have become less generous, levels of long-term unemployment are much higher, taxation has become less progressive, and politics has increasingly been dominated by those with the deepest pockets who can lobby the loudest" (Phúc lợi của chính phủ ngày càng ít, tỷ lệ thất nghiệp lâu dài ngày càng cao, thuế thì ngày càng ít lũy tiến, và chính trị đang bị chi phối bởi những người giàu có nhất và họ có thể tác động mạnh mẽ lên nó)
