Yes, the correct answer is B, juxtaposition.

In this statement, those who have prospered beyond imagination are juxtaposed against middle- and lower-class Americans.

Or, we could also say that those who have achieved the American dream are juxtaposed against those who are watching it slip away. Both are true in this argument.
