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.
