Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The nation as a whole is better off as long as the gains from the winners exceed the losses from the losers. Restructuring means that some industries are dying and workers and producers have to find other opportunities. This may be difficult for not only those directly involved in the industry, but also for the surrounding communities. Adjustment assistance states that since the nation as a whole benefits from trade, there are newly added resources that can be used for compensation. Second, there is a potential ethical obligation to assist those hurt by economic change. Third, compensation reduces the incentives for those hurt by trade to fight against free trade policies.
