The question is a method of reasoning one. The first sentence seems to be the key, the rest is background.

This freedom of speech, in addition to being a basic human right, is also "the only rational policy" for us to adopt.

The author is telling us this thing (freedom of speech) is both a moral ideal (basic human rights) and a pragmatic self-interested approach.

She is coupling these two things.
The problem is that "self-interest" can be interpreted as in the interest of the policy advisor, which is what I first thought and automatically eliminated C. It's a very poorly worded answer choice. All the others are wrong for much more obvious reasons, so imo it's a poor question.

mornincounselor, WOOPS! I did mean to put PT6. I changed it.

PeanutsNJam, I know we mostly disagree, but thanks for agreeing with me. This question made absolutely no sense when I was doing it under timed conditions. I hoap the February LSAT doesn't pull a fast one like this.
