Answer to Question 1

Because of difference in levels of economic development is greater, which leads to larger political and social tensions.

Answer to Question 2

Critique of the labor argument largely rests on the confusion between nominal wage rate differences and productivity wages.
Critique of the infant industry argument is based on 1 ) the rent seeking and misapplication of what it means to be an infant industry, 2 ) the government's ability to correctly identify such industries vs. the market's ability to do so, 3 ) the protection creates disincentives for efficiency and low-cost production.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
