Statements      Arguments

A                      The Infant-Industry Argument

B                      The Protection-as-a-Bargaining-Chip Argument

C                      The Jobs Argument

D                      The Unfair-Competition Argument

Explanation:

The Jobs Argument:  Domestic jobs need to be protected for the good of the national economy, according to this argument.

The National-Security Argument: Some products and services are, by their nature, issues reserved under national security.  To expose the internal security systems of a nation may have untold consequences.

The Infant-Industry Argument: Nascent industries require domestic protection from foreign competitors if they must grow to competitive levels.

The Unfair-Competition Argument: This is more pronounced in developing countries without the manufacturing facilities to compete fairly with developed economies.

The Protection-as-a Bargaining-Chip Argument is argues that trade restrictions may be imposed to force other countries to reverse or remove trade restrictions.
