Answer to Question 1

The rationales for protectionist policies are to shield workers from foreign competition, to nurture infant industries, and to help domestic firms establish monopolies in world markets.

Answer to Question 2

An open market sale of bonds leads to a leftward shift in the money supply. As a result, interest rates increase, which in turn reduce investment. The lower levels of investment translate into lower output levels.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
