Explanation

While anemia is a medical condition, anemic as a metaphor means “weak or lacking vitality.”

Myopia, or “nearsightedness,” also makes a good metaphor, but describes people and their decisions. The job market hasn’t been botched (who botched it?), and the other choices are nonsensical.

An anemic.
