Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Anti-trade critics argue that U.S. job losses are mostly a short-term problem in isolated industries, such as manufacturing, that have been impacted by increasing global competition and offshoring of jobs. This argument suggests that the overall impact of trade on employment in the U.S. is limited and that the benefits of trade outweigh the costs in the long run.
