Answer to Question 1

Estimates of job gains or losses are mixed and not definitive. Within five years of NAFTA's implementation, the estimates ranged from a net loss of 98,000 a year to a net gain of 42,000 a year. Actual estimates of the number of jobs gained or lost are closer to guesses due to the difficulties in estimation. Pro-trade think tanks and scholars usually show job gains, while anti-trade think tanks show job losses. Neither side of the debate can show large job gains or losses in the United States due to trade agreements.

Answer to Question 2

D
