Your text, on page 629, lists three arguments for trade restrictions. Since economists do not favor trade restrictions, and this is a course in Managerial Economics, make the case as an economist against trade restrictions for these three items. Are there any arguments for trade restrictions that most economists would support? Discuss.
Who was responsible for the global financial crisis of 2007-2009? Free-Market capitalism, government intervention, or a combination of both?
